Why include the word "women" at all, though? Replace it with "jews" or "gays" and see how it reads. The fact that he chose to single out Bay Area women, specially, implies he doesn't hold men to the same standard.

If I were a woman working for Apple who didn't happen to be into carpentry or animal husbandry, I really wouldn't want to work for this guy.

Because that description was specifically to highlight how different his then-girlfriend was from them.

"Most gays in the Bay Area are lame, but my current boyfriend is great." - seems fine?
