Although it's easier if "Ma" counts as a name.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Isn't one of her birth parents male?
I guess I'm misunderstanding the rule. I was thinking in terms of men as romantic/marriage partners, as opposed to men in any capacity. The conflict in Rachel's parentage involves whether her parents were whites or Indians (Kiowa, to be exact).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
is "Mrs Pteranodon" a name?
I always thought that was weird too. Every other dinosaur they meet is Rhymes-with-species Species. Why don't the Pteranadon parents have names???
(The main problem is that most scenes are Buddy/Tiny/Friend-of-the-week, so even if it's Tiny + Whatshername Velociraptor talking about feathers, Buddy's there too.)
dunno, are there any female puppets besides Abby Cadaby, and does she talk to Maria or anyone ever?
There's the one who likes to dance, but I can't think of a scene between her and Abby that didn't also include Elmo.
I was thinking in terms of men as romantic/marriage partners, as opposed to men in any capacity.
Nope - the point of the test is that the movie has at least one scene not about a man, not just not about a romantic interest.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was thinking in terms of men as romantic/marriage partners, as opposed to men in any capacity.
It does mean in any capacity, otherwise a lot more movies would pass. However a discussion about her parentage might pass where a discussion about her parents might not.
It may seem a bit draconian, but try and count the conversations men have without any reference to women at all in them--there are tons.

As far as shows Dylan watches, SuperWhy and Curious George both fail since the main character is male and in every scene.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
There are several female Muppets on Sesame Street: Zoe, Prairie Dawn, Rosita, Grungetta (I have the plush toy). They rarely talk about boys.

But do they ever talk to each other? Like, Grungetta (had forgotten her) pretty much talks to Oscar.

NSM with the Muppet Show, I just realized. Basically Miss Piggy, Janice and Carmilla the chicken. Does talk about men include male frogs?

They do. They frequently pair Zoe and Rosita.

Didn't Sweetums or one of the other big monster muppets turn out to be a girl monster? Am I making that up?
