Bonderman replied, "actually, what it shows is that it's much more likely to be more talking." The Uber meeting was, among other things, slated to discuss efforts to rein in a toxic and sexist culture at the company.{{Cite news |last=Isaac |first=Mike |date=June 13, 2017 |title=David Bonderman Resigns From Uber Board After Sexist Remark |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/13/business/david-bonderman-resigns-from-uber-board-after-sexist-remark.html |access-date=June 14, 2017 |work=The New York Times |issn=0362-4331 |archive-date=June 14, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170614012508/https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/13/business/david-bonderman-resigns-from-uber-board-after-sexist-remark.html |url-status=live }}{{cite news |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/uber-director-david-bonderman-apologizes-for-inappropriate-comment-about-women-1497399061 |title=David Bonderman Resigns From Uber Board in Wake of Disrespectful Comment |first=Greg |last=Bensinger |newspaper=The Wall Street Journal |date=June 13, 2017 |access-date=June 14, 2017}}Benner, Katie; Isaac, Mike (July 17, 2017).
