Thiel would tell you that's not what he meant, it was simply a factual observation that women tend to vote against his preferences, according to polling data. And I do think he is slightly redeemed by the fact that his conclusion was not "let's roll back women's suffrage", it was "let's get rid of voting altogether".
So I don't think it's quite unambiguous, although I wouldn't buy this explanation. I would love to ask him why he thinks women voters differ from men on these issues.
