So are you arguing that masculine = gender neutral? Because her role is really very neutral. There are plenty of more overtly masculine men than the probably-very-neutral-anyway guy who could have filled Ripley's role with very little difference.

There are more overtly masculine men, but are there more overtly masculine women? Because this is the issue isn't it, that the OP (and others) identify as a masculine woman and want to see more women like themselves in media... but OP also sees herself in Holtz, who isn't even overly masculine. So now I'm attempting to understand what is considered masculine for a woman in media. If a character playing a role originally envisioned for men with no overtly feminine additions doesn't count, then what does?

I'm on a tangent from OP, not being familiar with the character they're talking about.

You still very much sound like you're arguing that gender neutral = masculine. It is possible to be neither masculine nor feminine. Just because Ripley's not super feminine, doesn't make her masculine.
