Has anyone ever applied the Bechdel test to opera? (Does the opera include two women singing to each other about something other than a man?)
I'll start:
Puccini's Tosca: Fail.
Delibes' Lakmé: Pass.

@bodhipaksa Ooh, my brother is the opera expert in my family. He's on vacation right now, but I'll ask him when he gets back.
