Don't worry, case. You'll likely get it in due time. If you are really stuck, check Undertoad's hint:

Anyone who hasn't gotten the puzzle yet, it doesn't really speak to your intelligence. Go back to it, I swear this is useful. Imagine that the question in the puzzle is being asked of you by a four-year-old child. If you still don't get it, LOOK AWAY from the puzzle. Stop, and imagine a four-year-old looking at the puzzle and asking you the question. Why would a four-year-old ask that question? Picture the kid asking you the question. Is it a boy or a girl? Why would they ask that question? Imagine what the question would mean if you were four and didn't know that the dots represented numbers.
Of course it's only easy for me to say this so casually because I finally solved it after lots of time and tries. Oh, hey, with this puzzle that just proves how brilliant I am!
