The damage was done. Other female employees were already complaining that they didn't want to work with him and that's fair on their part IMO.
If you're a white man, would you want to work alongside someone who believes you to be biologically inferior and easily rattled by stress? Probably not.
Even if Google has to settle out of court it's easily worth it to prevent more spread of poor PR ... they are a company that makes products after all that are used by a lot of women (go figure) and that kind of toxic PR would've likely led to a boycott of their products/services if Google did not act. And that is the free market. People can vote with their wallets, and when over 50% of the marketplace is women, you better bet your ass that group carries a lot of sway.

So you're making up stuff, huh?
He never said that women are biologically inferior to men. He said that there's biological differences between women and men (which is very true).
As far as women not handling stress or stressful situations as well as guys in general, didn't a bunch of women take the day off at google because they were stressed out from the working condiitions/that guys memo?

That's assuming that the women and men were under the same pressure. There is a common belief that women cannot accomplish as much as men, or that women aern't able to handle stress is well. Having to deal with that stigma, and having to worry about it, creates an extra level of stress.
