Out of curiosity, I ran some quick numbers on Goncharov and compared the top-level statistics of that fandom vs AO3 as a whole. Since Goncharov isn't real and therefore doesn't have any baggage from its production, just whatever fans decided on for the purposes of a joke, I thought there would be more focus on the women than the men, and I was right. Rounding for readability's sake: Goncharov is 40% F/F, 36% M/M, 16% F/M, compared to 10%, 48%, and 25% of AO3 (Gen, Multi, and Other are comparable -- 20%, 4%, 3% vs 18%, 5%, 4%).
I didn't pull any real data to compare these for because it wasn't easy, but Katya is the highest-tagged character at 59% of works, Goncharov the second-highest at 51%, and Sofia third at 40%. Sofia/Katya is the fandom juggernaut at 41% of all Goncharov works. In contrast, the highest three characters on the Archive as a whole that aren't OC or Reader are Harry Potter, Tony Stark, and Dean Winchester, the first girl being Hermione Granger at #6; and the first 9 or 11 ships (depending how you count Aziraphale/Crowley) are all M/M and we don't hit an F/F ship until #44 (Kara/Lena, Supergirl).
I thought it was interesting! When fujin are creating a fandom wholesale out of a shoe and a joke and a dream, we clearly love women characters and want to write about them. 💜

It's even more interesting because the media it is drawing from has a few excellent actresses and female roles but is largely a sausagefest. There's no specific pressure from a production shafting the women, but many of the models for what would be in a movie like this are men.
