The Rule by Alison Bechdel, 1985

Note to screenwriters: the best way to pass the Bechdel test is to get two women to kiss on the mouth

DON’T YOU EVER BE ASHAMED OF YOUR INTEREST I JUST DID A PRESENTATION ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT AND THE BECHDEL TEST IN FRONT OF MY ENGLISH CLASS

Shoutout to Severance for taking two interesting women and dumbing their characters down to motivating a man :)

I'm so serious when I say Supernatural needs to conduct The Bechdel Test except it follows these steps:

Sam and Cas are featured

They talk to each other

They talk about something OTHER THAN DEAN

I am doing a Cas only episodes rewatch right now and I swear the only time these two have ever had a scene where they DONT talk about Dean is in First Born with the guinea pig thing and then some of the extracting grace thing.

I only started thinking about this two days ago and I'm on s11 in my rewatch now so I've probably missed other scenes. But so far, since I was at the end of s9 and through s10 to halfway through s11, I have been keeping tabs on this and THEY ONLY TALK ABOUT DEAN. It so fucking FUNNY actually beause they're literally like two friends in a group of three where whenever the one person who holds the group together leaves, they're both just there like: ummm, so... what do we talk about?? And the only thing they have in common is DEAN.
