I'm watching Justice League and I'm starting to notice something interesting: during the two part episode "Fury", when a rouge Amazon tries to poison every man on earth, the city of Gotham (and Metropolis, presumably) is still able to function. There are enough female medics, firefighters, police officers, etc to keep the city safe and functional. There's definitely strain, simply because they're down to half-ish strength, but they've got enough manpower (pardon the pun) to keep the city going at least short-term. The thing about this that really caught my attention? This egalitarianism carries through in the rest of the episodes. There's a roughly equal number of men and women in crowd scenes, an equal number of male and female civilian personnel, and a less lopsided ratio of male League members to female ones. It seems like a stupid SJW-ish thing to get excited about, but considering how rare this is media in general and superhero media especially, it's very encouraging.
Edit: which makes the episode I'm watching now, "Legend", especially cringe-worthy. (It's based on an in-universe 50's comic book, which means there's rampant 50's racism, sexism, and kid sidekicks. The Flash is having waaaaay too much fun.)
