I agree. I think its a shame how often women feel sidelined in their own stories. I feel like this has also ruined movies for me. The Red Shoes (1948) is a pretty amazing movie about dance, ruined when the central conflict of the film turns out to be "career or a man?" (spoilers but the answer is "suicide" - to be ENTIRELY fair though, "healthy communication" was never really on the table for a 40s marriage).
There are examples of women being written well from that time period and before but I do understand why the 00s and before get that overview.
