> I've heard stories from several female founders/VC's (not naming names or specific details to protect anonymity) who have experienced repeated unwelcome advances even after it was made clear they had a significant other.

Why should that even be a factor? Unwanted is unwanted, whether they're in a committed relationship or not is not relevant at all.

"I have a partner" is just one way to tell someone their attention is unwanted.

Parent post included that because these threads are full of arseholes who say things like "he didn't know, why didn't she just tell him?"
