N!S2

[(Anonymous)]

You're drawing false equivalents. It doesn't matter that she defers to authority and gets saved by men (although, honestly, once is as a child, I don't count that), she's a feminist character because she has her own independent storyline within the narrative. Period.

What you're basically saying is that a character can only be feminist if she's an emotionless stoic asskicker. That's terrible. Women should have all sorts of personalities, even ones that you deem "unfeminist".

Also, like... she's still a character in an action movie that doesn't really care that much about having deep, realistic characters; all the characters are a little shallow and more or less limited to action-movie types. But she has as much character work as anyone else in the film, and her character is independent and has her own storyline. And that's a good thing basically

Yeah, exactly. Characters, including female characters, ARE allowed to show emotion. They ARE allowed to be vulnerable and to be helped by others. But a shitload of female characters in movies, especially in sci fi and action movies, exist only to motivate the male characters and don't really have any character whatsoever aside from those interactions.

Mako has her OWN story. She's survived a horrific trauma as a child and learns to cope with it and grow from it. That's what makes her a good feminist character, not being emotionless and rebellious.
