> If I wrote a story about a night out with my mates, would you complain that only men were talking?
I don't think OP is complaining, just remarking on how it's a signal of the time.
You can write a story about your mates all day long, nobody cares, don't draw this false equivalence; however, when all of society is just writing books about "their mates" and somehow women aren't present in any of these stories in any significant capacity, then I think I'd raise an eyebrow: no?
