To be fair, the original question did not suggest it needed to be easy to explain to men. The only requirement was to be difficult to explain to women. So, technically, this answers the question as written.

I’ve read this like ten times and I think the joke might be that quantum mechanics are difficult to explain to everyone, of which women are obviously a subset. But maybe I’m doling out too much credit lol

And we all know that technically correct is the best kind of correct.

The joke is that quantum mechanics are difficult to understand, so the commenter doubts their ability to properly explain it (to women). The replier assumed it was a dig at women’s intelligence, not a reflection of the original commenter’s intelligence and ability to explain.
I.e. a stupid person would have difficulty explaining anything to women.
