Unsurprising, but disappointed, that the article opens by typing one woman losing a gender discrimination to the claims of another. The Microsoft CEO told women to shut up and accept what they are given. Not really surprised at the suit.

Meanwhile, the Business Insider author appears to be semi-literate and they do not seem to employ an editor.

"Women should $x" does not implicitly mean "Men shouldn't $x."

I expect that most CEOs would like all of their employees to shut up and accept what they are given.

And the CEO did this at a safe internal company event and was obviously given a softball q he should have been able to answer in his sleep.

They should have fired him for that and gone on bended knees to Alan Mulally and begged him to take the Job
