Where did the author say women are needed to take care of the housework? Even with the sarcasm this is a pretty thoughtless and offensive post.

What a weird comment, you are talking about there being women at all but the observation is that there were exclusively women

I don’t believe the author would’ve put the same emphasis on the gender ratio if it was all male speakers.

That they consider an all female group a noteworthy observation is exactly what’s antiquated about this kind of thinking. All male group? Business as usual. But fill the stage with women and suddenly it’s “saying something.” — The implication that Apple is putting them on stage to virtue signaling they’re a female lead company.
