As a guess (if you want to go looking for relevance):
It's set in San Francisco (Y-Combinator is in the Bay Area).
It's kind of about a social hack (pick up artistry).
Some conversations on HN indicate that people here are interested in how to promote gender equality, if only in terms of "how do we get more women into hacking?" type thing. This article explores an issue of gender equality: That women really can't pick up men the way men can pick up women. In that regard, things are still not equal (and maybe never will be).
FWIW: I'm female and could only manage to skim most of the article. <shrug>
