b8: the test.
The test is never about a specific movie being anti-feminist or anything like that.
It's simply about awareness.

American Pie 2 passes the Bechdel test

Awareness of what? The arbitrary addition of characters and dialogue based solely on gender rather than anything having to do with context within the narrative?
This is as pointless a test as if you made one rating only movies that featured a Wilhelm scream in them. It's meaningless and it shouldn't be used as a metric by which to judge a film's quality.

It isn't a metric, that's what >>69796748 is saying.
The point is to use it for a broad look at the film industry and realised how few female characters there are that are developed in any real way. If the only time female characters in the film talk to each other, they are just spouting off about a man (which almost inevitably means 'the main character') and that is a repeated pattern across films as a whole, it's a waste of narrative potential.
