    For all I care, a CEO can get whatever, if it's from the funds they raised, exclusively. Just not my donations or revenue directly from the product other people made. A "vision" or…

    "This lady", or "managerette", and "this guy" are quite different tho, don't you think? The question is, if she's criticized differently, because she's a woman. Personally I feel l…
