There are multiple female characters in this movie, Annie (Quvenzhane Wallis), Grace (Rose Byrne), Miss Hannigan (Cameron Diaz), and all of the other foster children. In one of the first scenes, Annie discusses their keeper, Miss Hannigan with the other foster children. They also discuss their idea of their parents. When Annie talks to Miss Hannigan, they do talk about the Social Service Inspector, but they also discuss her previous career. When Annie meets Grace, Mr. Stacks is brought up, but they also talk about Annie's life. Although multiple times Annie does discuss a male with another named character, they do also discuss other topics.

I don't see why this is considered dubious.

It’s not dubious at all. Annie and all the other foster kids (all girls, all named) talk about their own lives and Miss Hannigan, among many other examples.
