        .@paulg Spend some time assessing how your investment strategy is sexist, not running your mouth making things worse like you always do.

        @shanley YC's strategy is so exploitative, it is a cruel kindness to be excluded.

        @paulg I wouldn't. You won't convince those who don't understand statistics and the fact VCs are not made to lead affirmative actions.

        @paulg before you publish I urge you to have a female engineer you don't personally know review your piece.

        @jackdanger @paulg A very important topic, but I agree that you should have a female engineer/founder read through it. Tread lightly.

        @paulg looking forward to it - seems like the best result that could come from this is a PG essay to start a better conversation.

        @Sharon_Paley @paulg It's probably important enough to think through, not rush, a response.
