Although there are plenty of women in Superbad, there isn't a single instance that we see them actually talking to one another.. only to the other male characters.

The girls in the mall towards the end...and they aren't talking about any male characters.

i agree with Steve, they are talking about her need to get a new comforter at the end, not about guys.

also, very early in the movie, we see Jules talking to another girl about the upcomming party. the second girl isn't named, but it still sneaks in.

Yes, this definitely passes because of the conversation at the end.
