What makes it seem sexual in nature?

Surely inviting a female employee, alone, is the unusual aspect that would make it appear suspect?

I'm not going to explain it any better than the other guy. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13970336

First things in that post:

How does "that guy" know what agenda there is?

If you can't explain any better then I can't accept your argument.
