Ok but, awful as this is, "you should consider it" is funny, ngl

Yeah, it's a sexist comment implying she isn't either qualified to be at the conference, or mistaking her for a passerby who is unaffiliated, and should consider working there. Either way, I don't find sexism funny. Dunno why anybody would, but hey, I'm just some guy on the internet, so you do you.

It would work fine if the target was a man too, it's just one hell of a burn. It's a shame he was using it for evil.

Without any context it or history its just kinda dickish? Like maybe a good burn to a rival in some sort of relevent scenairo but this just sounds like an attempt to belittle someone by "mistaking" them for something "lesser" then when called on it they double down?

Strikes me as grade school level bullying at best 🤷
