By measuring dialogue, we have much more objective measure of gender inclusivity.
So what? What now? Does a book/ movie/story get better if it’s 50/50?
It’s nice to analyse data but what is it good for?
Now, you could rank the movies by popularity and draw the conclusion that the more men talk, the more popular the movie.

Wow, it’s almost like statistical analysis of populations is done in order to discover trends rather than interrogate individual cases in that population.
you can pick any x from X and say “but what about this one” and yet you are still left with the task of explaining the trend in your samples.
Any guesses as to the reasons behind these trends?
