Athletes shocked at interview questions (Language and gender/language and occupation)

Perspicaciousnesses,

here is an article that explores the kind of questions female athletes get asked in interviews (I've also seen one recently with a female and a male action film star). The video is fake in that the male athletes were not genuinely asked those questions (they have been added in over video of them responding to other questions that confused them or they didn't like) but it was done to illustrate how they MIGHT respond. Look at the lexical field of the questions - what do you notice about the key vocabulary?
