It retcons a lot of stuff in a hamfisted way and she gets everything handed to her by being an awful person. Honest question here: do you consider Rey from the new Star Wars movies to be a Mary Sue? Honest question here: are you going to dismiss any such concerns as being sexist if he says yes? If someone is of a mind to dismiss a 'flawless' female protagonist like Rey with one hand and then reject a deliberately flawed female protagonist like Korra with the other - while at the same time complaining that a chronically struggling character like Korra 'gets everything handed to her' when a protagonist like Aang has all of his major physical and spiritual challenges ~~solved for him by fishzillas and phoenix down water and lion turtles and such~~ - then yes, I might reasonably surmise that this person has a more deep-seated problem with female protagonists in general. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. <cite>masterpug53 posted [p:893533145] in I'm watchi...
