You keep missing the point on this, and I have to wonder is that on purpose.A survey conducted among U.S. adults in January 2020 showed that women were nine percent more likely than men to watch or stream TV shows and movies. A 2021 report found that 47.2 percent of lead actors in films in the United States that year were female. A decade earlier, the share stood at 25.6 percent. Today women like to see women in strong roles and film makers are responding. I suspect we are going see more not less women superheroes on the screen.

The share of female lead actors has been decreasing since 2022.www.statista.com
You have said these things to me when I have complained of this same thing.
Again, NO ONE complains about female heroes like Alien Ripley, or Sarah Conner in Terminator, or Leeloo in the 5th Element, or Trinity in The Matrix.... shall I continue? Or are you starting to get that there is a difference between how these strong female leads were written in and how "Space Jesus Rey" in Star Wars 7, or Galedrial in The Rings of Power were thrown in to save stupid, weak men from their incompetence and stupidity? And who are given mad skills that came from nowhere to absolutely dominate and destroy other characters who are stronger/better trained and years of experience. Yet a female secretary walks in and literally mass murders a band of well trained mercs. (that is an actual scene in a recent film)
That is the problem. Not that they are females, but how Hollywood throws them in lazily and stupidly and expects no one will have a problem with it.
