The article is about issues that affect women from a woman's perspective. The article is written in response to another article in the same vein. Moreover they're written to show the change of the author's perspective over time. If what she describes is so gender neutral, do a bunch of pronouns really matter so much?
These are very contextualized, very human conditions. Removing the gender perspective would greatly change (and cheapen) this piece of writing and for what? I'm a man and I can take lessons from a woman's experience. I think it's a good exercise in being flexible and learning more about the self-identity of others.
I found this article illuminating. Women face different social norms and expectations than men do. Maybe some of them don't like this. Maybe some of them do. Regardless, they should be able to write about it from where they are and not to please an audience.
