Ok, much as I am glad to see this thread dying off, this one needs a
reaction, at least from my perspective.

This one is no less egregious that the one being batted around.  This
time, it's just plain sexist, and equally as offensive if not more so.
 Taking a guess here, a number of the more verbal of us have been
females.  I can only presume Mr. Bing thinks that we females operate
by a double standard on such issues.

WRONG.
