at the top, in the line with the title, there's a link to the domain in parens. that'll bring you to a page with everything submitted from that domain.
>This also reminds me of the show Remington Steel.
Exactly, and that happened in the '80's, and seemingly the idea of the show dates back to the late '60's (when it was reckoned to be too "advanced" for the time).
But the use of a male nom de plume has much longer traditions in literature, George Sand or George Eliot to mane just two of them, and even the Brontë sisters originally published under the male names of Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell.
What is surprising is that - in some occasions - it is still needed ...
“Okay, girls…” offended them ? I am not sure why, after all the startup scene is full of these feel good things like high 5s and free lunches. Would “Okay, ladies…” be offensive, or maybe “Okay, Maams…”.
This is business, get over “Okay, girls…” as there will be a lot more to be offended and agitated about. I have seen men make other men cry in board meetings, and it wasn't as polite as this. If you are offended by the person you have hired then you set boundaries and fire them if they cannot be met. Basically they allowed that person to be in control.
And control was what it was about, they allowed people to control them and then invented a fake persona which they could use. Heck this is something I've done in many meetings ... "Hey John, my CEO is not going to be happy" ... it's not about sexism it is about control.

How about this happens to just about everyone, male and female.

This rabbit hole is getting pretty deep.
Of course they just deploy that persona for problematic people that wouldn't be smart enough to cross reference company registration documents.

Or are there no boundaries, limits and barriers in the battle against prejudice.
Also where is the fraud? They haven't registered him anywhere legally.
