Sam, that's exactly how I read it - but because of the specific mention of girls it comes across as being agenda-driven. And also strangely old-fashioned! It's like a boarding school teacher of something: "Come along, girls!"
I feel better now that Victoria saw it the same way. And obviously my impression was deepened by the Googling exercise!
