How should I respond to men who say that women can't be entrepreneurs? Would it be appropriate to kick their asses? I've gone to karate for years?

First, I cannot imagine anybody actually saying that with any measure of credibility. If they are they are just saying it to be confrontational.


Second, as one who works in the legal system the potential consequences for such a course of action assaulting somebody is quite serious. Especially since some states will factor any training or skills into the decision to prosecute. Potentially losing your dojo, income, or even right to teach your craft is a high price to pay for trying to beat the ignorance out of somebody.


How should you respond? Chuckle and say “Ok, Buddy.” and walk away.

Not at all; you'd just be proving them right, since you'd be showing that you don't have the self-control necessary to respond to verbal teasing in a rational way. That's not exactly a mark of good entrepreneurship.

Instead, succeed. Prove them wrong.

[FarimaFahidNouri]

Do what anyone else (male or female does) has to do and ignore them and move on with your plans. If you have what it takes, you'll make it. If you don't, you won't.

As much as you clearly want to make this about gender, it's not.

Unfortunately, when most western women say they are "entrepreneurs" it means they are on "Only Fans".
