she was an out right plot devise on many occasions. I was just pointing out that there are other ways for a female character to be a strong character with out being a fighter. In fact I think it is more realistic for a female character to be shown as strong in other ways than by being a fighter. Mostly because I think the average feamle viewer would indentify with her more, since most females in normal society can bust out a few fighting moves and take on a group of armed fighters at a drop of a hat (or guys for that matter eighther)
