Not really. IMO It's an attempt to confuse the Lunar taxman who probably charges a head tax on Orlanthi worshippers.

[On the Mandarin exams]
>PS Women are permitted to sit the examinations.
It is noted that women have this facility called 'intuition' that allows them to guess the correct answer in an exam. Since the duties of a Mandarin require a great deal of knowelege and enlightened thought rather than mere guesswork, it has been sadly necessary to adjust the examination rankings of women downwards to arrive at a true picture of their actual ability.
