I appreciate the effort put into these interviews, but most of the advice might be a short cut to HR and office drama. This kid gloves attitude sounds condescending and forced. I don't care about the gender of my peers and that should be enough. Otherwise, you're just expecting a special treatment. Female peers never had any issue with me. They know my friendliness is genuine, not a political effort.

> I don't care about the gender of my peers and that should be enough. Not caring about their gender is awesome. You know what's not awesome? Refusing to accept that other people who do care might have had a big impact on their lives. > Female peers never had any issue with me. Well, they have never admitted any issue to you. It could be that they have no issues. Or it could be that they've put you in the category of "person not worth talking honestly with." Given that you have a strong aversion to what you see as "special treatment" and they might see as "fair treatment", I could see why someone might be inclined to flip the bozo bit.
