There's no evidence of "males freaking at female orders", but then there wouldn't be, because the review board and her superiors are primarily male (as were the majority of her colleagues and subordinates). So that might be part of it, but there's no real way to establish that or include it in the article. Given the sources and context, it did seem that the dismissal was getting undue weight, so I reduced the coverage and I think the article is in OK shape.
