2. I have noticed that, and I'm sad to admit that I tend to judge some canon girls as sues too. I'm looking at you, Kairi from Kingdom Hearts. Yes, I like this character, but god, could everyone in the game like, not elevate her onto a pedestal all the time? Most of the scenes of the game that had her in it were pretty much a demonstration of how SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME Kairi was. She doesn't need that. She's good enough on her own.
But I'm also an equal opportunity person. I also pick on any perfect boys I find. ♥ The problem really, is that it seems like male heroes seem to have had more time spent on them for character development while some girls look like they were taped onto the side as an afterthought.
Also, I think there's some subconscious need to make the girls much more perfect or stronger, so they can fit in with "the guys." The problem comes when some people tend to overdo it.
