Re: Alternative to the Bechdel Test?

You're right that one of the reasons many movies fail is because the protagonist is male but I think that's less a problem with the test and more a problem with the movies. About 50% of people are women so why can't about 50% of movies have a female lead? (In 2013 only 15% of the 100 highest grossing movies had a female protagonist. Of the top 50 [couldn't find the stat for top 100] films 24 passed the test.)
