We were the chumps.
Most of us knew something wasen't right, but were afraid to ask the hard questions. I don't belive it was do to gender. Plus it was the whole fake it till you make it cool kids time.
That black turtleneck borrowed from Jobs. That was the only thing that tipped me off at first. And no, I was not going comment on her looks. Was it because she was female? I don't know? I just knew it was a tell. (I didn't know anything about her, or her company. I just saw a person acting a part.)
The rest of her story didn't make much sense, but so many Silicon Valley companies don't make sense. She just jumped on the band wagon.
A years worth of chem at college. (I don't know for sure.)
Rediculious claims about hematology.
A generation of tech folks fawning over Zuckerburg. It was the "Everything is possible with youth, hard work, white, comming from wealth".
Investors were salivating over another Zuck.
If she is found innocent, or guilty, I don't think it will affect women entrepreneurs.
She is blaming everyone, but that's what the wealthy do when in a bind. It's never their fault. Always the victim.
She was an aberration. We were the fools.
I believe she dodged some hard questions because of her gender, but so many wealthy semi-attractive male/female entrepreneurs seem to skate through life without getting asked the hard questions, until it's too late.
I do find it disconcerting that kids (male, or female) from wealthy families get so many passes in life.
