Support the Girls 2018
More movies where sexism is depicted as a pervasive atmospheric discomfort, instead of One Clearly Defined Issue/Person.
More movies about groups of women supporting each other, professionally and emotionally.
More movies with complex black women as the protagonists.

More movies with butch women who don't exist as a joke or a threat to feminine women.
More screaming.
