So the new version passes the Bechdel test?

[–] goldteeth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 53 points 6 days ago

Yeah but one does have to question if segregation is actually progress

It's even funny the way the parent comment described it: a girl town right next to the normal town.

  1. I'm an uncle, not a parent
  2. I wrote another comment somewhere else: the main village contains women but there is a small group of young girls with a separate village

Depends on the culture.

The Air Nomads were segregated in Avatar, but they were sexually progressive forever, and raised children communally. Stuff like that is fine.

I know nothing of Smurf lore, but they don’t seem like one of those repressive segregated cultures.

No, the main village contains women but there is a small village with a young girl clique. Gargamel has his niece and nephew for a visit. Might be special for smaller kids. The episodes weren't that long online (they aren't anymore but older episodes are)

Wow! TIL. Also, maybe less surprisingly, I just found that EURIMAGES has it as a criterion, so I guess no public EU money for your movie project if it doesn't pass the test.
