>Where is the anti-female bias?

In specifically marginalizing a profitable business acquisition just because he'd assumed it was frivolous by its' nature.

How is that in any way related to gender? I also "marginalized" Tumblr and Summly, was that me throwing shade towards men?

They didn't make money.

He asked how is that related to gender?

Yahoo doesn't break out the numbers so we don't know how much revenue any of the companies they acquired are bringing in (profit would be even more difficult because of shared resources). Regardless, none of this has anything to do with gender. I chose a large, medium and small example from a list of Yahoo's acquisitions.

So, if someone posits that a business venture is frivolous, actual profitability aside, that is anti-female (or anti-male) statement/view?

I still don't understand. Can you please elaborate?

If someone posits that a profitable business venture is frivolous, it's not about whether it's good business or not. Also, you do understand.

Back to the point: what does any of that have to do with sex or gender? Maybe you will elaborate, if OP won't.
