Audiences Hate Bad Writing

[eshsai]

Strength isn't arrogance. Strong characters have no need to react or show off. They simply take action.
Why these writers can't understand this is beyond me.

Sarah Connor is written as a badass. she's not badass "just because", she has depth. totally agree.

"the problem is they're writing a woman, not a character" -someone i read somewhere once

[chamathdesilva]

Katnis (played by Jennifer Lawrence) in the hunger games is a prime example of a good female lead

[Theblecquetzal]

How to write a strong female character? Just write a character who happens to be woman. Write how you would write a strong person, give it flaws, internal and external conflict and have them thematically represent something which is the most interesting. Done

Katara, toph from avatar the last Airbender were fucking genius writing...

[chosx]

True as hell create a strong female character that has depth and doesn’t bash men.

Azula may have been downright crazy, but damn the writers knew what they were doing!

Great example is the Mulan movies. The animated one had to actually train and learn to fight both alone and with others building a bond. In the remake she she could fight and run on walls from childhood, didn't need to learn anything and didn't need fight along anybody else.

Asohka from the clone wars was fucking great.

Women are struggling in other parts of the world but feminism stays quiet

[wahedakhan]

Scully from the X-Files was one of my favourites. She carried herself so well. If only there were more role models like that character, especially in this day and age.

[Djones]

Disney tried pulling that with Rey, oh you just don't like strong women...

No, I don't like Mary sues

[Jezzie]

That is why I read Korean novels, the strong female characters are great

[Camilla_Kudrin]

Sarah Connor from the Terminator series and Alice from the Resident Evil series deserve much respect 👍🏻

[zannthemann]

For me, their character screams, "We want to include a strong female but only to seem like we care about a broader problem when we couldn't care less"

[AlooParantha_]

Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is an amazingly written female character

[waniadanish]

Ide just like to say Katniss from the hunger games was one of the best strong female characters

[justapotato]

Vi, jinx, caitlyn, mel medarda's mother, sevika, mel medarda, that one enforcer woman from arcane, are the example of a good writing

[raenelllewis]

The video clip of Jennifer Laurence saying there was no action lead females prior to her was shameful!!!!

Lara Croft
Ripley
Sarah Connors

These ladies are taking for granted the lane paved for them by truly wonderful acting/writing
