I interpreted it as them thinking this use of the template is mysoginistic, because it implies that women are dumb and not privacy conscious. The typical posture of "you are not REALLY privacy focused, you are a woman, how could you be, women don't know".

I was saying that I've seen the "dumb person" side switch enough times to be able to not infer that from the meme. I mean, you have to pick one of the two as the simplist one right?

I might be wrong if OP always slots women in their memes as the dumb one, I didn't check. But in this meme's case, I doubt most people would take the negative interpretation mentioned above. That was my point.
