I could be wrong, but it seems like women in popular entertainment are more likely to be portrayed as strong, heroic action-oriented characters if the stories are science fiction or fantasy-based.
Buffy, Xena, Wonder Woman, Emma Peal, Ellen Ripley, Sarah Connor, Lara Croft, etc.
Why? Is it safer if it’s a fantasy?
↓ TranscriptSCENE: Woman sitting at desk with a pen in her hand.
WOMAN: I’m writing science fiction, so…gosh! Maybe the hero can be a girl!
