Delhi based partner at top 10 VC firm WOMENIZER
Went for pitching my startup with my cofounder and found him openly flirting and trying to be friendly. Have you guys faced this? Isn’t this blatant abuse of power? Wondering if I should name the firm but scared.
Whats the point of posting this if you can’t name and Shame.
Name and Shame pls. Also a VC if your startup’s good will fund
Having money to give and then flirting while someone asks for it looks a bit wrong, certainly yes.
BUT:
I think if you are being honest, you need to pick it up with his firm first- if you are genuinely served injustice. Have you already done this? Were you still meted injustice? Then fine you can probably go ahead but be careful and sure you were rejected just because you refused to entertain him & not because your firm genuinely failed to impress him.
If not, You coming here directly & threatening to use gender card & media sympathy makes it feel like you are just out for revenge and are just a sore loser. Especially when you have not tried to genuinely get justice and here, directly trying to hurt him.
Even then calling someone womanizer is as bad as calling someone slut? And if being slut is not a crime then so is being womanizer. Flirting and being friendly or sweet talking is not a crime either.
Unless you have tried to get justice first through proper channels, this looks like a ploy to get revenge and u might be just a sore loser for all we know.
Please don't take this as me mudslinging at you, angry minds can do stupid things that might be wrong & you might regret later, so think carefully and do what's right. Am also sorry if you guys failed to secure funding🙁. Good luck. Hope you get your funding for the startup somehow. Nation needs more startups (healthy ones)
Ma’am have heard more like this especially in Delhi ncr, but from smaller firms. Best way to get such people reprimanded is to name them.
Have heard this multiple times. Powerful guys have normalised this behaviour.
