My point was not that it doesn't happen, but rather that he implied it was a bad thing that anyone was trying to stop it.

It happens with both males AND females.

Your viewpoint is not only mysoginistic but narrow minded. Attractive PEOPLE flirt their way to all sorts of things. Whether that's a better table at Denny's or the "top of every corporation"

is debatable.

That's too far in my opinion. That's insulting to everyone not just women.

On the other hand, it could just be an acknowledgment that there is a distaste for the QAA in UK academia. In other words...he slipped a small dig at the agency in an essay unrelated to auditing agencies.
