It seems to me developers and moviemakers are going out of their way to turn female characters into male-like macho heroes.

Personally, I find such characters unappealing and even less plausible than their male counterparts - who're already extremely ridiculous in the vast majority of cases.

If that's an attempt at gender equality - I have to say I find it laughably stupid. If women want to be macho - then they should consider testosterone on their cornflakes - or it won't work.

I wonder why we're not seeing strong feminine roles instead - or rather I'm not wondering, but it would be nice to see - both in gaming and movies.
