Of course the real problem with the strong female action figure is the lack of real world models random thoughts Send a noteboard - 22/08/2017 07:30:55 PM

It has become a perverse aspect of feminism that they want role models that are physically equal to the male characters. Men might as well demand more male characters giving birth. As long as they think a female character has to go toe to toe with their male counterparts in physical ability they wool always have unbelievable role models that they can never reasonably expect to emulate.
