The thing is that I don't find the show sexist at all. I love it exactly that way. And I don't understand that gabble about misogyny at all. Dean is very respectful to women - who deserve it like Ellen or Missouri or his mom or Carmen etc. Why should he pull back just because his adversary is a woman? Would he pull back if she was a man? When equality, then in everything and not only where it suits the women.
And about the writers learning to write females - sure, they should learn but not on a show that they ruin with their failed attempts. For me, only a half of S3 was watchable because of the introduction of Bela. Ruby I could take. She was a demon and for me basically genderless even if her meat suit was female. Demon is a demon is a demon.
