Christina Tasty @ChristinaTasty - 17h I think giving Peach this whole generic girlboss vibe where she wields a halberd is kinda lame considering I'd rather see her pull off a Kingsman with a parasol. This is why unoriginal writers shouldn't write women who could kick my ass. II GIF ALT 11 51 392 ↑ Christina Tasty @ChristinaTasty - 17h Let Peach kick ass with girly princess s---. Let her knock out a Koopa with a teacup. Let her fight off Bowser with a frying pan. Let her make out with Daisy. Let her throw a crown at someone before daintily putting it back on her head.

yep, and I agree with op too. I get sick and tired of seeing the "strong independent woman" character that treats femininity as a sin, and writers trying so hard to veer away from the "damsel in distress" image that often they encompass the worst aspects of toxic masculinity, such as burying down emotions, mocking others for showing vulnerability, and dealing with negative emotions or conflict with anger and violence.
Also there are already a bunch of characters out there that are feminine yet capable. Some can fight, some use their compassion and kindness to stop conflict, some use their intellect.
