People who get offended with these sort of jokes, offend me. They must be really sad people.

Stop saying sorry for this sort of things!

Your links are about comedians getting into trouble by offending people. That is a different issue to gender stereotyping in a professional environment. People do have a right to be offended, call people out on it, and try to improve the world they live in. I don't think that makes then sad.

Yeah, the links are about stand up comedians, because he tried to relax a bit and make the presentation fun!

"Professional environment", as in "Advertising a product". Take 10m and watch some advertising. This is no better or worse!

The world don't need more Drama Queens.

Would it be sexist if this was "Boyfriend", this has nothing to do with gender. The presenter could be a girl.

This "tech sexist" thing, is bullshit! Skills worth more than your balls. No one cares about your gender.
