>>It certainly sounds like her male counterparts have created a hostile work environment and under U.S. law her employer can be sued for letting it continue.
(probably) true.
I found her post documenting a far more effective attack on the problem than reaching for a lawyer. She has potentially fixed, or at least alleviated, _many_ people's problems rather than just her own through skilful use of irony(*) and her own talent.
Her approach compared to your proffered solution appeals to me and certainly seems more fitting on a site dedicated to "libre" software related nerdiness.
Mind you - I'm English and probably don't understand some of the finer points of the TWSS thing. It sounds awfully clever. I'm probably overreacting in some way.
Cheers

If by awfully clever you mean awfully tired, you're right. It was funny when I was in high school 10 years ago, it is rarely funny now when you have the luxury of a human screening. I couldn't imagine it being funny as a response to a list of suggested keywords from a bot.
And my friends now are just as childish, or maybe more childish than my high school friends. It's just that there are a lot better responses, such as repeating what they said for effect, or "so that's what you did last night?", or "Yeah I like it hard too."
