Its not even that they write characters that coincidentally are female. Casca is one of the most well known female characters in manga/anime ever, is designed bottom to top as female first with it defining every single aspect of her character, and is still one of the strongest characters around. It took the worst nightmares imaginable to break her, and she still eventually managed to be reformed.
The problem with Hollywood is they write them as a victim first, and then strong after. They are constantly defined by their oppression and victimhood, and their "strength" is made by fighting back against it.
Even worse, they are designed to be just the right amount of weak to let betaboys feel comfortable around them. So they are "strong" enough to cover his meekness, while also having that controlled weakness that he can be "sensitive to" to win her over.
Its ironic, but they are still 100% designed as creatures for certain types of men to lust over. They just changed from red blooded regular men to the type of guy who wants to Feminist his way into your panties.
the hilarious thing is that victim first characters are not even necessarily bad writing. but when it becomes the only thing that the industry can write, it becomes extremely stale.

They're designed to be stand ins for wine moms.

I cant imagine what kind of a man one has to be to go for abusive bitches.
There is no greater joy than to take one who thinks they are strong and to remind them they are weak.
But for most guys, they are just masochistic little bitches and deserve to be abused.
Gotta dig into that 1pm on a weekday cinema crowd
