Oh, honestly. This is a film about a little boy and his group of stuffed animals. Even if the kid was a little girl and every single stuffed animal noticeably female, it still wouldn't pass the test because there are NO grown women (or men) anywhere near this franchise. Even looking for a Pooh movie to qualify for this just stinks of pedantry...

The rules say nothing about age, everything to do with gender. Yes it would pass if there were two noticeably female stuffed animals talking to each other about someone other than a male stuffed animal.

I suppose it depends on whether you interpret "woman" and "man" to imply not only gender, but maturity as well...

Kanga certainly counts as a named female character. Within the fantasy universe, she is an adult female. However none of the other characters in this universe are female, that I am aware of.

Cassie is another female character in the franchise, but she was in the '90s show only. There's also whatsherface from the new slightly patronizing show on the Disney Channel.

But no, in the movie itself (being classic Pooh), I'm pretty sure Kanga is the only female character.

How dare you assume the genders of the animal characters. Unless they specifically identify by a particular gender and make it known, you are wrong to assume.
