I can see that. Growing up I read a lot of sci fi and paranormal books but sci fi back then had good male characters. I didn’t read Tolkien til I was in my 30s (watched the cartoons growing up) and we read Greek mythology in school. But I get your point. Unfortunately I didn’t understand the value of positive male influences til a bit later because growing up in the 80s tv was full of them and I had my father, grandfather, uncles, brothers, etc. you don’t realize the need til it’s gone
