Comment on Investors prefer entrepreneurial ventures pitched by attractive menparent

Comments

My first thought was that "affluent people" (investor types) would choose people most like themselves.

And if that means more investors are men who consider themselves decent looking, that means more invested ideas are from men who are above average too.

Another thing not taken into account is differences between the "men delivering the pitch" and "women delivering the pitch". Are the people delivering the pitch equally experienced at presenting? Gender is not the only change when you swap presenters.
