"a Master Inventor with over 40 issued and pending patents"
and you don't list or go into detail about a single one?.. That's just being vague with an attempt to deceive.
Maybe the creator should actually list what successful, useful products they have made in the past - what they learned from those experiences rather than just 'oh i met some woman who wrote some book.'
I wouldn't have even considered the authors race and gender except its the only part of their identity they seem to put on the page (aside from having 40 issued and pending patents.) It's sad that this is what their main way of convincing me of their aptitude is.
This website (iFundWomen) is also inherently sexist. If there was an iFundMen, I will bet you $100 that it would get so much shit.
Did you read the about page of the website? "Despite these amazing gains, women still only receive 2-6% of venture capital funding"
I feel like that makes it pretty clear why this website is normal and why "iFundMen" would be odd. This stuff is really not as complex as people are making it out to be. Also, ifundwomen != ionlyfundwomen.
Nice. Good insult.
I'm not allowed to be skeptical of a crowdfunded project when there is very little evidence to persuade me that they can actually do it just because it's ran by a woman now?
