So: how might we generalize/extend this research to the benefit of HN readers? Are startup/financing decisions also made more (too?) often by males than females? Or: might men be more likely to err on redirecting/retooling efforts and women to err on the side of hanging in there when the going looks tough? Even without any research, the one generalization that might be worth considering for startups: some gender balance might provide useful perspective on company directions.
