The damsel in distress can work as long as you give the damsel some character, like giving her a personality. đ

MORE female villains. I grew up absolutely loving Maleficent and the White Witch as some of the coolest characters of all time. That kind of character doesn't seem to exist much anymore. Instead, they are watered down just to be the real victims, and I should actually hate some guy instead? Weird modern villain requirement.

Iâm so sick of reading headstrong/stubborn FMCsâŚ. Itâs so overused and itâs frustrating to read because they refuse to take advice(usually from Male characters) and ultimately make poor decisions which lead to some avoidable catastrophic event. Whatâs worse, is that there usually isnât much character development following their actions, and they will most likely not learn from their stubbornness!! I would personally like to see more FMCs be more reasonable and trusting, overall see more personal growth and relationship building.

That comment about people not knowing how to write subtle characters changes without losing the core really hit a spot with me

My favorite female character is Nausicaä from the Studio Ghibli movie (and more importantly the Manga) Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. She's is fiercly compassionate and kind towards others, and can also fight for what she believes in and to protect the ones she cares about.
The movie is nice but doesn't show her full character as the manga does, i would still recommend watching it though :)

One of the best female characters I've read about it a very long time is Yona from the manga Yona of the Dawn. She starts out a spoiled princess, someone who doesn't care much about anything other than her hair and her crush, but she's forced very quickly to grow up and get stronger, and we see her learn so many things, like shoot a bow and arrow and lead an army. She turns into a super strong woman who also recognizes her emotions. She never loses her inner kindness, but instead learns how to turn it into a weapon. She reminds me a lot of Katara from Avatar. Highly recommend Yona of the Dawn!

I think we need more female characters who are genuinely humble and/or tragic.
I think of Spiderman who is struggling in his own life, but still sacrifices deeply to serve, normal everyday people. Or Harry Dresden who is extremely hard on himself, and is terrified of what he might turn into, but over and over again he makes difficult choices that cost him deeply because he desperately wants to be someone who will do the right thing, even though he doesn't always know what that means.
Too many female characters keep whining about how they 'deserve' more than what life has dealt them, or how unfair society is. Give me more tragic female characters who selflessly sacrifice themselves without getting bitter about it.

A good example of a quiet healer and a loving daughter would be Sorcha from Juliet Marillier's "Daughter of the Forest." Marillier actually does "soft" women characters incredibly well throughout her body of work, especially with the heroines of "Daughter of the Forest," "Son of the Shadows" (both healers), "Wolfskin" (a priestess), and "Foxmask" (a young woman with a talent for embroidery and the textile arts). I really wish this author were more popular, and I'm glad to hear her get a mention in this video.

lol âend gameâ is the phrase you were looking for when youâre talking about who the character will be with at the end of the storyâŚmaybe lol

I love these long chatty videosđ
And Mulan is still one of my all time favourite movies, in large part because of the reasons you listed.

I am a male writer writing a book with 2 female POVs (3 male). I'm trying really hard to write them well an not fall into some of these cliches. This video helped tremendously, thank you so much đĽđ

Not finished the video yet but shallan is such a great example of the naive character from all angles, with the growth she goes through while keeping the sunny disposition but also the things sheâs gone through that maintain her naivety to a degree throughout her personal journey

I'd love to see more characters who just happen to be female, they do not have to be a love interest, someone who has to prove they rise above their status, someone who is a strong, or anything female. Just a normal character who just is a female and is not defined as "not male"

I would love to see this for "Male Love interests/Female love interests" cause I feel like they're their own beasts.

Iâve started saying, âwe need less strong independent women and more strong competent womenâ in our stories. Competence is key to me because itâs flexible enough to encompass many attributes without pigeon holing someone into a stereotype.
Side note, my author friend, McKenna Rowell, writes some of my favorite female characters. I donât care much for historical fiction (I prefer science-fiction and fantasy), but she writes excellent characters and stories that I really enjoy reading.

Hey can you make a video about fantasy series with female protagonists

I am learning in my reading journey that expert character work is a skill most writers are just average at best with. It seems only elite writers can master creating complex and nuanced characters that feel real. Most writers create female character that lack balance. For example, most of the modern fan-ro female characters are predictable ânot like other girlsâ badasses who make no mistakes and do everything flawlessly while being superior to other female characters who donât fight in physical battles.
They are strong, brave, and capable but also arrogant and shallow b/c authors are afraid to make them sensitive, nurturing out of fear they will make them seem âweak.â There is nothing weak about being sensitive, nurturing, and empathetic. Itâs insulting and makes for a very poorly developed, one dimensional characters.

I think some of the stuff we see in contemporary fiction regarding female characters is a pendulum swing from the previous position of women on extreme end to the other extreme side. Also authors should show both* masculine and feminine aspects of their female characters.

the descent into madness/evil is exactly what my female main character is going through in the series I am writing. She starts as a hero, has a villain arc, and then has a realizaton and tries her best to climb back to good

the coolest thing about mulan is that she does have to act like a man HOWEVER in the climax her fellow soldiers have to dress up and pretend to be women in turn for the plan to work. the moment when they show the gang in their courtesan disguises, about to scale a wall using the method mulan came up with during the training montage, as "be a man" is playing in the background is one of my favorite moments in the movie (and also probably in cinema history) bc it's such a perfect payoff both narratively and thematically. just ties the gender related themes of the movie together so well. gosh i love mulanđ
