More on the woman warrior.
Here’s the typical scenario: a woman or women do amazing heroic feats under the direction of a male (in the case of the title above he’s even disembodied). Whether its the Powerpuff girls, Buffy (most seasons), Max (working for Eyes Only) or Sidney Bristow it is always the same pattern. (Witchblade was different, but it didn’t last on the air.)
So, is this wrong? Don’t we know a husband who left the bride to take her sword go on a mission?
But…but…He didn’t leave us as far as the battle is concerned, did He? Does He not still go before us into the fight?
