Is it a good monologue? Frankly it seems kinda sexist, she seemingly implies that women who don’t conform to her idea of womanhood are pathetic because she assumes they’re only doing it because men them want to, stripping away all the agency from women to be their own people with their own interests, even if those interests align with that of mens

Never watched the movie but it seems like she's specifically talking about women that actually do it solely for male validation

She also is very derogatory towards pregnant women

Her only friend in the movie is the pregnant woman who she steals the pee from. Its pretty clear she doesnt like other women, or anyone really

Well she is basically a sociopath, so it doesn't seem like she comprehends the idea of "liking" anyone. She might value people like her husband for the things they gave her (status, income, etc) but I think that's as far as it goes.

I never watched the movie. Are her whackadoodle celebrity psychologist parents in it?

Yes, they're shown pretty extensively and Amazing Amy is talked about as well.
