Okay, that's it.

Tell me something awesome about a woman you love in any fandom. Wax poetic. I want to hear people talk about what they love about female characters. And try to pick female characters or women in RPF who haven't already gotten love so we can spread it around.

And no bashing other people's comments!

You know what? I'm picking Boo. Yeah, okay, she's a very tiny woman. Who cares? She's silly and fun and adorable, and looking at an icon of her always makes me feel better, and she learns how to be brave right before our eyes. I heart that so much that I really wish I had the time to rewatch Monsters Inc. before I leave for work, but I don't, damn it.

Now you go. :)

EDIT: Guys, if you want to do more than one character, go nuts. The more, the merrier, right? \o/

Tiffany Aching from Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. She's more than just smart - she's sensible - and she's brave and loyal besides. She does the right thing not because she's a do-gooder, but because the right thing needs to get done and no one else is stepping up to do it. And she rocks because she's not a hero in a vacuum. She lives with the same insecurities and influences all girls do, and she makes the choice to look past the china shepherdess with its fancy dress to make a hero of her plain-speaking, tobacco-smoking granny instead.

Definitely agreed on her. I think I might well also say Agnes Nitt.

I adore Tiffany, and I'm making all my nieces who are into the Harry Potter books read about Tiffany, too, because...well, you said it all, really. Tiffany rocks.

All the Discworld witches rock. They're good for kicking ass on the creepy things or making sure Old Man Jones down the road gets his sidewalk swept.
