I can't completely agree with this. Elastigirl/Mrs. Incredible, Jessie, Eve, I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of. They all did as much if not more than Dory (who is also awesome).

Jessie seemed like a counterpart to Woody more than a proper character in her own right. The others, I forgot about, I guess. I concede.

The OP isn't saying there weren't female characters in Pixar films. But you can't say that any of those were the main character, nor did they have roles that aren't "expected" of girls.

1. Good little housewife and mother. Tries to keep her children out of trouble. Only becomes any sort of badass near the end of the movie. Who is the movie really about? Mr. Incredible.

2. Yes, she's pretty awesome, but she doesn't do much except be the female counterpart to Woody and sing a song about how she once had a girl and lost it so she's content to be in some fat guy's collection. It wasn't her story anyway. It was Woody's adventure away from his nice safe room.

3. Actually gets out there and tries to overcome her own personal problem and the dangers of the ocean to help some guy she doesn't even know find his kid. (But the story still wasn't about HER.)

Which would you rather have as a role model?

1. Only becomes any sort of badass near the end of the movie.

I have to disagree. The moment she learned her husband was in danger she charted a jet plane to go and save him--when the plane crashed and she and her kids fell out of it, she was the one to calm her distressed kids down and formulate a plan. She takes down guards. She reached her husband on her own. I'd say she was badass from beginning to end, and her juggling the roles of a mother, a wife, and a superhero only increased her strength as a person and character.

Who is the movie really about? Mr. Incredible.

Also disagreed. We see as much of Mr. Incredible as we do of his kids and his wife and they all play their own major roles throughout the story. It's about, as the title indicates, the whole Incredible family.

Please never mention that you believe being a housewife and mother prevents someone from being a good female role model around any of the female members of my family. It wouldn't be pretty.

Wife and/or mother are aspects of a person, not the be-all-and-end-all.
