I do think the quotes from Bran and Brienne are meant much more to underline the problems in the kind of society he is writing about than to, well, espouse them. And I think the focus on Sansa and her growth, even more than having Catelyn or Dany (or, OK, Cersei) as POV characters, shows that GRRM does care about the women's stories.
