An Australian tech executive has gotten himself into trouble after making a very public and sexist statement.

Evan Thornley, head of venture capital firm SBDO, was presenting at a start up conference in Sydney last Friday when he showed a presentation slide which include the statement "Women: Like men, only cheaper".

Bad move, Thornley. Bad move.
