First you must understand Gender as a social construct. Who made the definition of masculine and feminine? What are those classical characteristics? Most importantly, for whom are those characteristics convenient?
The reason I like atypical girls (and I bet most of us do it for the same reason) it's because they're OUTSIDE the box. It's not mysoginism, it's all the contrary! If your intention here is to defend female characters, think of which stereotypes of femininity are you defending.
Can girls be gentle and caring? Of course they can! The problem starts when that's all they are. Look at the media in which gentle and caring female characters are predominant. Are there any males with those characteristics as well? How are they presented/regarded?
So yeah. Fandom!Feminism? YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG. Inform yourself first. Read books on the topic, I'm sure you'll find them really interesting, and then you will be able to defend women and female characters with real arguments to support statements as bold as this one.
