This is a normal post It does read as insulting,
but I think the thing to feel insulted about is the distribution of those words that already exists in job ads, not the way this webpage is using them. That's that the research they link to identifies.

I also thought this was really stupid when I saw the link, but the site and the research aren't making claims that certain words are more manly or feminine than others- they're making a claim about the way using those words in a job ad might contain hidden presuppositions about the gender of the ideal candidate, which people actually respond to knowingly or unknowingly.
