You can definitely tell this is written by men, but they also seemed to be trying to write women well. Also, the benevolent sexism didn't cross over to gross for me, but I can see where others would disagree, especially where Miller's obsession with Julie is concerned. One mitigating factor for me is that it's clear pretty early on that he can't really hurt her no matter how obsessed he becomes.
