If you take it entirely at face value, I find it quite inoffensive. As I have no

quite happy to take Fred's word for it.
Offence is often available if you search for it hard enough.
Cheers,
Peter

I've noticed that women are often quite motivated

Extending good faith I would presume this is irony. It does not transmit well by email.
