All his male characters are put through traumatic situations too. The female characters don't automatically have sexist storylines just because they're also full of pain and suffering.

Whedon's writing isn't flawless or sexism-free, but IMO on the feminism scale he's ahead of a lot of sf/f TV writers -- and definitely ahead of the people who think writing "strong female characters" (whether their definition lines up with yours or not) is an exotic and remarkable thing for a man to do.

his male characters aren't put through traumatic situations that are a direct cause of their manhood unlike some of his female characters though.
