No they indicated they hired based on the behavior of the person. It’d be more like:

You are a hiring manager and interviewing a dude, and right before the interview you witness him try to go to the bathroom, see the men’s lineup is kinda long, so he just waltzed into the (very clearly marked) women’s bathroom to skip the lineup, and there were even women in the bathroom using it!

If this person was a woman, you wouldnt care that she used the women’s bathroom, because thats a non-event.

But what you witnessed was a dude who didn’t care for social norms and just skipped the line, not following directions, and not giving a fuck about protocol.

So you choose not to hire him, not because of his gender, but because of his behavior
