Let me get this straight...for the next 20+ years at least the main storyline is going to have a protagonist that's not even male?

I'm pretty sure there's a Han Solo (male) pic coming out in 2018, not sure what you're mad about.

He will be out staged by a female side kick... and he won't be sexist like he was in Episode IV and V.

not main story, l2read
Um no sweetie, not the next 20+ years. Try more like forever. The force is female. Get over it.

There were only two women in the entire series, if anything he was trying extra hard to come off as cool so that one of them would want to plow him.

White men have shown they will domestically, go to repeat viewings because they have nostalgia built up by lucas.
Disney realized this and used powerful brand to expand out to women and minorities knowing white men would continue to go see these movies.
They didn't get a lot out of women yet, something like 32 percent of TFA was women but as they keep ramming these out of a yearly release, they'll get girls when they're young and grow the women into their desired demographic because like men, they can condition them.
White men were catered to as a niche and now they're trying to make this a normalized thing. The next new male lead, OC will probably be a light skinned black male.
And then asian. Keep opening up china, keep working on different demographics.
Why does the gender of the characters matter? As long as the stories are good, who cares?
You sound like a reverse SJW. Muh characters' gender muh representation muh I want someone like me.

Yes, I despise even more white males than the white females who enslaved them. I mean only a nu-male will pay for the next movies. Even if the obvious feminism doesn't bother you, how can you swallow a dumbed down rehash and a joke of a script.
However I don't think the next thing will be a male minority. As you can see these movies are white female dominated and will remain so. They're adding neutered diversity sidekicks that don't threaten the white female in any way. Look at John Boyega, he was the new Jar Jar. And Diego Luna was just stuck on Jyn's back, not a lead man. They even chose particular physique. Diego is skinny and short, Boyeag is just weird, short with a big ass.

You should ask that to Kathleen Kennedy and JJ Abrams, they kept saying how it was important to have a female lead and that their daughters can now enjoy Star Wars. Supposedly they couldn't before

They only like it now because they're getting what they want.

Even so, OP can't project 20 years down the road. We don't know what's coming in The Last Jedi. It's a silly OP.
Main story will be put on ice for a while after episode IX.
