It's a less popular show but there was this one called BrainDead and even though I absolutely loved it, I was just wondering about how the main character would be perceived if the roles were reversed between the sexes. And I started to think about how these things are depicted in media in general which is what got me to post this.

I agree with what you're saying but male characters also shoulder way more of the guilt/remorse aspects of stories whereas the female ones are decisive and quicker to move on even if it's just for appearances and conforming to society which makes the whole thing even more convoluted.

Prisoners. I absolutely loved the movie the first when my brother just randomly put it up. But when I watched it the second time, it was so obvious how much at the top of their game everybody in it was. Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano, Hugh Jackman, Terrence Howard would have all gotten Oscar nominations if it were up to me. And of course Roger Deakins and Denis Villeneuve let them to do their thing.
