In response, Ohanian emphasized that his involvement in women’s sports is not merely a fleeting interest but a strategic investment. He tweeted, “Can’t stop, wont stop! And not doing it bc it feels good (tho it does) or bc I’m a girldad (tho l am 2x) but bc I’ve made a career out of identifying and then investing / building BIG businesses 10 years before everyone else sees it – that’s why women’s sports interest me.” This entire interaction was posted on Alexis Ohanian’s Instagram story.
