Strawman followed by ad hominem.

Their genitals are only a part of their overall style. Just like genitals were a small part of Fellini's or Ken Russell's works. Or are you arguing that everyone with a vagina makes similar sexual movies, or thinks about sex the same way? That would be a little too stupid even by your standards.

You sure that's not confirmation bias talking?

If I didn't know who the respective directors were, I would guess that The Hurt Locker was directed by a man and The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant was made by a woman. And I would be wrong on both scores.
