You could still see the change happening then though. Looking at your two examples, consider how the female characters still did most of the saving and action sequences themselves. The male characters were allowed to have one or two scenes where they actually acted like heroes, but even in Tangled and Frozen the male heroes were not allowed to actually outright save the day. They were there to sort of help the female characters along in them saving the day. Still friendly and cordial yes, but the "Don't need no Man" attitude was already starting to fester.
