It is sexist in the sense that it is a motivation mechanism completely biased towards men. However, there is no such thing as discrimination going on. These girls applied for the job and get paid for it. It's not like they are being called engineers. They are not engineers and it makes no sense to say that "they should hire female engineers" because that 1) is not always possible (obvious lack of women in the field) and 2) may not even help to solve the social problems that most male engineers suffer from (which is the goal of hiring those girls), since female engineers are not there to cheer boys up. This would be replacing A with B -- it's not the same thing. It is sad, however, to see that so many computer programmers struggle so much with social problems. I wonder how our (I am including myself in this set) future looks like.
