Why do you like female ass-kickers?

I love it cause it shows that women are just as strong as men (and in some cases,stronger) and that we can be independent and that there's stuff that matters more than how we look, like how a lot of women are today.It's fun to see girls kick guys ass

I like female ass-kickers because they are in a sense the embodiment of all that is not gender roles and gender stereotypes. They don't sit at home baking cakes and looking after the kids waiting for their bread-winner husbands to come back home. They are strong, independent, very capable women who have their problems but get by anyway. They show that they are just as capable as men are and must not be underestimated. With women today still struggling to get equal footing in a highly male dominated world, it's quite refreshing (and hopeful, dare I say) to see these women kick butt on screen.

It's funny, one reason I like them is kind of the opposite of why you do. My experience has been that the weak, stereotypical women fiction is often so fond of are not as commonly true to life as their high fictional representation would imply. Strength comes in many forms, and I have seen a lot of it, physical, intellectual and emotional, in women. It is also something I aim for myself, to be strong to the best of my abilities.

I find stronger women in general more relatable, their reactions and priorities closer to mine, their personalities easier to like. I also like characters whose behaviour and/or skills I admire. Not to mention I feel they (when done properly) tend to be given more depth than other fictional women which makes them more appealing to me as a viewer or reader. They aren't there to be a girlfriend, a mother, a stereotype, they are there to be a character, and are often given more depth and respect by the writers (again, when done right).

Plus, with the physical ass-kickers, they're just cool. I love a well choreographed fight scene, and pretty much every fight scene I consider above average features at least one woman. Not that there aren't some great ones by the guys, but that's how my favourites ended up.
I also think a lot of gender roles only exist because people are raised to have them, and having strong role models not be bound by gender does good to help people see past what society would brand them as, through to what they really are.

Basically, I think they're more entertaining, more realistic (yes, often even the supernatural ones in terms of personalities), more relatable, more admirable and more interesting.

Because they show that men don't rule the world.

I like female @ss-kickers cuz they show that us women aren't just things that sit and look pretty but that we are people who can kick anybody's @ss if we want!
