General, Lover, Mom.
Nothing less. Not mutually exclusive.
She is sarcastic, determined, caring.
She is a warrior, a pilot, a leader.
As we are.
Women are never just one thing.
We are not just 'badass' or 'beautiful' or 'smart'.
Yes, we are 'able to be' many things at once.
In fact, we are.
So, it's not just about writing or depicting a 'strong' female character.
But a complex one.
A real one.
Someone that I can feel, she can be me.
