This is a possible explanation to the feminist shift in the second half of the series

From the wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boys_(2019_TV_series)

Writers in the first 4 episodes:
- Eric Kripke (the guy who created the series Supernatural and wrote the first seasons)
- George Mastras
- Craig Rosenberg

Writers in the last 4 episodes:
- Anne Cofell Saunders
- Rebecca Sonnenshine
- Craig Rosenberg
- Ellie Monahan

In a nutshell: the first half was written by men. The second half was written 90% by women (only one episode had a man as co-writer).
