there are several conversations between women in this movie but they are almost always about men. Even when men are not directly mentioned it seems to be in the subtext. there are also a few lines here and there that has nothing directly to do with a man but it's never anything the women really talk about. But I would still give this one a dubious pass since it's up to the interpretation.
