Women wanted equally!

 

The Bechdel test is used to measure the representation of women in fictional works. It requires that two women, who are named, must talk to each other about something other than men. This test is used to call upon gender inequality in fiction. It is observed by media industries that films that pass the Bechdel test perform better than those that do not pass it.

The test is named after Alison Bechdel, an American cartoonist. The test first appeared in their 1985 comic strip “Dykes to Watch Out For”. Various variants and tests inspired by this test emerged after it became popular in the 2000s.
