I meant that from the total 100% of rejected founders, 85.2% were male and 14.8% were female. I'm not saying its male persecution, I'm only saying that what the article is trying to say(that females are being oppressed and discriminated against on the basis of gender) is untrue, and there is more than one way of looking at the data. I can very well say that from the group of rejected founders, almost 6X more male founders were rejected than female founders, so male founders are being discriminated against. I am only trying to say that the journalists are implying what they want to imply from the data, its their perception, which is, in this case, far off from reality. There are a lot more females in education, healthcare, etc., compared to males, I don't see journalists saying that men are being discriminated against in those fields. Its because while a vast majority of women are interested in education and healthcare, a vast majority of men are interested in technology and entrepreneurship. There is no discrimination on the basis of gender.
