What makes you think that the intent was to represent women in mathematics?

I'm honestly asking, I'm a privileged white male so I'm not going to pretend to know what it's like as a woman in STEM fields.

Perhaps the meme would work better if the genders were switched? I mean, finding intellectual passion attractive is universal, at least in my experience.
