The foundational point of this question is incorrect. Men and women are both created in the image of God, and there is no mention of "directly" or "indirectly". The "order" of creation specified in 1 Tim 2:13 does not mention "direct" or "indirect". Because something happens second that does not mean it is lesser than the thing that happens first, any more than the New Covenant is lesser than the Old, or Isaiah is lesser than Obadiah. Your presumption is directly contradicted by the Bible:
So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27
