DC's Feminism

DC has cast 3 gorgeous lead ladies to play in their Wonder Woman, Supergirl and Batwoman projects...unfortunately, they all have the same sad "girl power" ethos. Don't get me wrong, I welcome a new generation of strong women into the forefront, but using the Womens' Movement as a tool to sell your garbage shows/movies is shameless. All their projects lack character development. If you really believed in empowering women, you'd make them real people who just happened to be superheroes...instead we get this caricature of strong women and conflation of lesbianism with strength. Loving the IDEA of feminism more than showing what REAL strong women look like...serves the exact opposite effect, it makes strong women look like fiction. Look, I applaud them for casting female leads, it is absolutely a good first step, but they need to dig deeper and give young women a better vision of empowerment than lesbian supermodels who punch things.
