I think now that I'm older I veer away from any story where the girls have to be as good as the boys or "better," like physically tougher, better able to give or take a punch, or whatever. I kind of found those stories really stressful as a young person and I ended up avoiding a lot of fantasy stories with female characters because there was so much tension/violence/must-be-masculine-to-succeed/rape issues. Eventually I just...wanted to read about guys. I think it made me more sexist not less because I didn't want to read that kind of story about women and how we had to be fiercer than men or RAPE or how RAPE makes you stronger and shit. At least, that's the overall impression I have of my younger reading experience wtih fantasy. Gone a bit blurry TBQH

We must have read very different books as young fantasy readers. My experience was generally that the rape threats and/or actual rape were pretty much there, no matter whether they were active or passive, in lots of what I was reading. It was just a question of whether the woman was allowed to try and protect herself from it or if she needed her man to do it for her.
