And it will bomb because no matter how much certain elements want and try to completely re-engineer normal gender based roles, it just doesn't work. We are wired they way we are.
I don't agree with this.
I really think the problem is the screaming "THEY ARE FEMALE LOOK AT HOW FEMALE AND FUNNY THEY ARE WE ARE MAKING THIS TO PROVE A POINT"
If they didn't make a big deal about one or two being a chick, it wouldn't be a problem. Assuming the female part was well cast, she'd be funny and unobtrusive. The nonchalant addition of women/diversity as though it was always normal does more for the 'cause' of feminism/diversity/whatever than trying to create these big polarizing statements.
