Alpine is minimal. That kid would show up in one piece pajamas because it serves the job of pants, shirt, underwear, and sweater+hood (if it comes with a hood).
Sits in the back of the room quietly working, well wearing a three piece plaid suit and smoking a pipe. Depending on the day the pipe may contain tobacco, marijuana, and/or mushrooms. Still uses a slide ruler because its stable tech.
Reminds me of a classmate who used to wear a trenchcoat, and had an old school telephone receiver in his pocket, attached to his smartphone via spiral cable.
Even though I find it likely that you detected an actual bias in the design of the meme, I don't see any explicit indications of Manjaro's, Fedora's or Alpine's genders.
"girl" and "woman" can be synonyms. one of their meanings (person whose gender is "female") is synonymous. but they do each have different other meanings.
I was thinking Ubuntu is the one who follows people around and steps on the heels of their shoes while they walk, but has loads of "friends" because they have money.
Bazzite: The kid with rich parents who has built three gaming PCs in the past year, just to keep his hardware up-to-date… But he only uses them to emulate games that are at least 10 years old. He also thinks RAID is a backup. He happily parrots whatever last week’s tech blogger was posting about, but he gets some big parts of it wrong because he only read the AI generated summaries.
Obsolete. No WiFi drivers ever. (Might be false by now.) Always breaks during major upgrades (that’s only my experience, so I could be wrong here too). But hey, it’s obsolete!
I’ve been with Debian through 2000s and 2010s, and if you’re someone not knowing this foss vs proprietary thing, it’s quite difficult to explain why there’s no WiFi drivers and that you need to do some complex hoops to get this working. I had no WiFi on most laptops I interacted with, all the time.
However, fair to say that just this week I had a Fedora installation for a friend’s MacBook from 2009, and we faced no WiFi thing either. Had to install Broadcom drivers separately. So, I myself understand why there’s no drivers included, but it’s not what’s easy to explain this to someone migrating off Windows. Otherwise Debian is good, but I use it only for single board computers.
Linux Mint: Smart and polite just as his brother Ubuntu, but unlike him don't eat trash food and wash regularly, so everyone in class actually prefer him for the study session.
EndeavourOs : The Arch GF. Smart, funny and have a good effect calming Arch worst behavior.
VoidOs: There never was a kid with this name in class. Never. And you can't prove nothing.

I think Slackware would be more:

Don’t break Debian, they say.

Up to my newest laptop (which is over 4yo now), debian always had working wifi drivers from the live distro.
For a real "no wifi drivers ever", try SliTaz. It doesn't have working drivers even on my 2012 asus laptop

manjaro also frequently steps on his own glasses and can't see without them.
alpine should have some minimalist edc stuff but nothing fancy and doesn't do anything else that stands out
