      I take it as a way to bring attention to the topic for some more nuanced discussion to flow. I don’t think the artist was trying to be sexist when making this.

      idk that’s just my interpretation though

      edit: Here’s another example that might get the double meaning across better

        Saying “it’s men” implies men are at fault for her not liking men. Saying it’s women would imply she is attracted to women

          But “it’s men” is kind of a pun on “it’s me”, which is the original trope this is referencing. Doesn’t really work with “it’s women”.
