"Female role models" in fiction are actually male characters

In recent years "progressive" leftist feminist ideology has been invading the arts, most prominently movies. More and more feminist-approved "women-empowering" "role models" with a feminist message are being artificially shoved into movies that don't really need them (and could actually potentially be quite good movies if it weren't for this kind of virtue-signaling feminist meddling).

Many critics have observed one particular aspect of most (if not all) of these feminist-approved "female role models" characters in movies: Not only do they tend to be "Mary Sue" characters, but in fact they tend to be extremely and stereotypically masculine characters. If you start paying attention to these lead female characters, you'll notice how they seem to have been written as stereotypical male characters, just with a female actress portraying them.

Almost invariably they are extremely stoic, showing little to no emotion other than the occasional fits of testosterone-fueled anger (a rather masculine trait), little to no vulnerabilities, little to no empathy and compassion. They have no emotional depth, and they are not allowed almost any characteristics, behaviors and expressions that are seen as characteristically female. They will show no weakness, they will never experience any sort of emotional or mental breakdown. If such a character ever cries, she will do so in a situation where a stereotypical masculine male could also justifiably cry (such as at the loss of a loved one), but of course never for too long. Only for the few seconds necessary to show that she's really going to be pissed off at the bad guys. They tend to be very somber and moody, and almost never smile, and will almost always be very introverted and closed-up, never opening about their feelings and emotions. You know, just like your stereotypical male.

In fact, these "female role models" tend to me more masculine than the most masculine fictional characters out there. They are almost robots. They are like Terminators that have testosterone pumped into them in order to get the occasional burst of rage.

It's funny how feminists deride men for "toxic masculinity", for being stoic and not showing emotion... And then all of these feminist-approved "female role models" in fiction are even more masculine than these men they so much disapprove of.
