Dear Women: Exude Love, Not Sex

Nice thoughts.
As a former investor I tell my fellow founders that a “No” at fundraising pitch dies as soon as the meeting is done. It does not roll over. Ever.

Most messages have 2 characters and villify/glorify each. Although I understand some others reactions, I liked your different approach. Things are rarely about all…
