I'm about to start a flame war here, I just know it.

WHY does it matter to mention the attractiveness of the female DBAs? When I talk about someone I work with, I don't comment on how attractive he or she is. I talk about whether or not the person can do the work and I can learn from him or her.

It's the subtle things that promote the attitude.
