>>Why would a boss think it’s OK for women to insult women?

It seems he should fire anyone throwing around arbitrary insults at work.<<

That is workplace conduct not sexual harassment. And if it was said confidentially between 2 employees it would not be actionable. Now even if you privately express something like that you will be fired for “creating a hostile work environment” i.e. sexual harassment.

Here's another example in the workplace.

Woman #1 says to woman #2 "where do you buy your underwear." Perfectly innocent conversation.

Now, man #1 (a normal man) says to woman #2 "where do you buy your underwear." Woman #2 goes to boss and says "he made me uncomfortable. Punish him."

Boss says "he only made you uncomfortable because he is a man. It's illegal to punish him. And by the way, you are wrong for being uncomfortable based solely on his birth sex."

That is workplace conduct not sexual harassment.

The SCOTUS ruling was about sexual discrimination, not harassment.

Harassment can be a form of discrimination but hiring/firing was the specific issue in the cases.

The point was you can't treat men and women differently for the same conduct.
