While the spot is generally more focused on women who physically kick ass as long as you think a woman is strong or a good role model I think it's fine to include her. I can't imagine people having any problems with you including women you think are tough even if they don't literally kick ass. There have been a few women included in picks and things who are strong emotionally but not physically. I don't watch much House so I'm not sure how strong the female characters are, but if you think they are then it's fine for you to include them.

Ohh,boy.
Ass-kicker means a GIRL WHO PHYSICLY ATTACKS AND HURTS OTHER PEOPLE.
The House MD ladies are amazing,but I they're more of a "I don't wanna break a nail kind"
Now see-Brennan-she is an ass kicker,same as Veronica Mars and Buffy.
Did Cuddy or Cameron or 13 even slaped someone?

I think to an extent they can be counted under this spot. I can't remember a specific scene or episode where it can showcase their ...can we Ass-Kickery? lol

But I think they have strong convictions and are emotionally strong. They can be good-role models, even if they have faults. (And come on, compared to House, they're saints. lol) I think Cuddy kicks ass. 13 does too, imo. Not a big fan of cameron though.
