I don't know, I'm still put off by the fact that they have to advertise her as, "LOOK HOW COOL I AM, LOOK AT HOW BADASS I AM, OOOOOH, I DON'T TAKE NO SHIT FROM ANYBODY, I'M SO AWESOME!!!!!" Seems like a perfect set-up for a Faux Action Girl to me, and I hate the fact that they put so much stock into it, like having a strong female character is some revolutionary new concept.

I have nothing against the character herself, but the fact that they decided to flaunt the fact that she's hard-headed like something we should be proud of them for just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Marketing=|=Creators of the show idea or opinion

The more I look at Avatar, the more it looks like the creators began the show with little to no understanding of the gender inequality in TV shows, and have slowly become more aware of it while taking steps to counter it in their own show.

The final form of this is of course making their main character a girl. Which in theory would be great, but I've noticed the same thing you have, that "LOOK AT OUR FEMALE LEAD! SHE'S HOT-HEADED AND TAKES SHIT FROM NO ONE! LOOK HOW PROGRESSIVE HER CHARACTERISATION IS!" sentiment. It's worrying because she sounds like every 'strong female character' ever, the brash no-nonsense ones that creators throw into their stories because they think it makes them look progressive, and to try and obscure the fact that every other member of the cast is a dude. I'm trying to have faith that the creators are still heading in the right direction and this is just a coincidence, but I'm terrified that they're going to backslide to the state they were in in season 1, where they were so busy showing off their female lead that they forgot to put more than one female character in the show.

THIS. I've thought the very same thing since I first saw her.
