I'm sorry, but to suggest that it's 50/50 whether potential investors are only meeting you to bone you is just ludicrous. I find that quite insulting.

You come across as sexist, and with a chip on your shoulder that big (and an ego to match), I certainly wouldn't want to invest in you.

I wouldn't want to invest in them eitger, mostly because of the massive victim complex they have.
You're right, it is just ludicrous.
What do you base your assessment on?
I base this 'assessment' on the fact that not all men are unprofessional, drooling apes.
But you are a man and so you don't get to see the vast amounts of sexist unprofessional behaviour that women have to put up with.
Regardless of my gender, I also know that not every man is a sexist bastard hell-bent on shagging every woman he meets.

I really do find it ridiculous and offensive (slanderous, even) to suggest that all men (or 50% of men; it's not clear it the OP meant 50% of people or 50% of men) are like that.

just wanted to let you know that I agree. and I'm also sick of being blamed for a small minority of other men's actions.

cheers, mate
