She was prejudiced towards him insofar as his relation with Komai was concerned, I didn't say she was prejudiced against him overall. She suspected him of being a predator without a good reason, other than him being a man. Before he told her that they're going to a bar she had opportunities to see that their relationship was clearly platonic and that he did not treat her like a potential lover. But on the mention of private rooms she immediately assumed the worst possible scenario and that he wants to exploit Komai and went to confront him, not taking another possibility into account. Then she belligerently and angrily called him out on his supposed misconduct, which he had to explain to her. Why should an employee explain to his boss what he does in his free time with another adult? I would like to remind you, that technically Komai is not a child, just looks like one. And then when Komai called her on the phone, she again immediately thought Takase did something to her. I understand being worried, but there are so many things that can happen and yet to immediately assume the man is in the wrong... Yea, that's discrimination. And even when she finds out that Takase was the one who got drunk and is completely innocent, she still chastised Komai about the possibility of him being a predator, despite it clearly not being the case.
I understand being cautious around men, as a general rule, it's the right thing to do. But there were good reasons to not see this instance as one that necessitates such caution, yet she persisted in her attitude.
