CN 86 I don't think you guys realize how important Codename: Kids Next Door was. The majority of our (basically) canonical couples were interracial, the greatest Supreme Leader the KND ever had was a female, and so many actually strong female characters like Numbuh's 3, 5, 88, 382, and l even count Lizzie because of how chill she was about getting trapped in a mirror reality The undertones of respect Numbuh 86 had for Numbuh 382 even when, as far as the rules went, Numbuh 382 wasn't in power and Numbuh 88 still obeyed hen I'm also pretty sure Numbuh 1 was going through chemo, either that or he was just a bald child Lets not forget how there was never a moment in this show that made a snide remark or hint about the female being too dangerous for them. The few times some jerk adult mentioned something even remotely insinuating they confronted the comment and called them out on how ridiculous it was, and then surpassed whatever stupid line was set. le operatives not being able to do something or it Also, there was none of that "I won't hit you because you're a girl, or you can't hit me I'm a girl, everybody beat the orap out of each other, fought over the remote helped each other out, and asked each other for help regardless of anything I'd screen ca p for you but literally every epi sode has an example o then there's numbuh 19th century who everybody hated thats just as important, the one guy that does make negative comments about girls in the knd is seen as a bad person. I love KND so much you dont understand KND might be the show with most Equality of all time. And I can't add anything else because you just said it all

Well, aside from 86’s sexist attitude during her debut episode (Claiming the boys can’t do anything right, blaming them for her mistakes, etc.), then yeah this show was pretty progressive.
At least the writers dropped that one quickly.

I think that was just more or less meant as "typical" child-like behavior. Because a lot of kids will go through that phase where the opposite gender is wrong/icky/evil.
