I think there are two additional elements other than her being a woman for all she described, that probably contribute as much: she's young, and attractive. The former alone is enough for most of her examples to work equally with male recipients. In fact, I've seen some of them (or similar situations) happen to males.
Not that I want to downsize the problem women in tech face, but this not, actually, only a gender problem. And, let's face it, it's not only a tech problem.
