Speaking of That's What She Said, the UCLA Department of Classics Grad Students held a conference titled that this weekend: [link]
The subtitle was The Construction and Expression of Women's Voices in Antiquity. I am torn between, "Cute, and you pulled one over on the probably antediluvian faculty member supervising you," and "I do not think that means what you think it does."
