It is very instructive to examine the matrix representation of <math>\mathit{l}^\mathrm{w}\!</math> at this point, not the least because it helps to dispel the mystery behind the name ''involution''.

To say that <math>\mathrm{J}\!</math> is a lover of every woman is to say that <math>\mathrm{J}\!</math> loves <math>\mathrm{K}\!</math> if <math>\mathrm{K}\!</math> is a woman. This can be rendered in symbols as follows:
{| align="center" cellspacing="6" width="90%"
| <math>\mathrm{J} ~\text{loves}~ \mathrm{K} ~\Leftarrow~ \mathrm{K} ~\text{is a woman}</math>
