text: Note I said many not all start ups need capital.  And the article I attached points to the sexist environment that exists in some areas of the venture capital industry.  And if you do not understand that environment, then you are naive.
  
  The issue is not necessarily finding the funds in venture capital, it is THE ENVIRONMENT woman endure in order to find the funds.  And many woman Founders give up because they are either held to a different standard or are viewed as sex objects.
  
  VC funding meets a specific need in the marketplace and it is not an equal playing field for men and women in select areas.  Some areas is blatant sexism / harassment.
