Strong women?

I was reading a post about Uhura's part on Star Trek and it touched some issues I pretty much have with all fandoms

In regards to what you said about about the double standard about emotional arcs and shirtlessness with men - The reason why no one cries foul when we give men these qualities or strip them of their clothes is because men don't lose their masculinity when they're given these qualities. They're still shown as tough and brave and powerful, etc. Men are allowed to be well-rounded. So far, females have been portrayed as either cold bitches or soft nurturers, and there's only the occasional exception

I just love love love to debate with you even if we don't agree. On this case I have to agree with some points and disagree with some. I do agree about Kate's purpose, though many people choose not to see when she acts like an independent character and bitches about this triangle when they overlook Juliet's role, who ends up being way worse than Kate's. I also do think Kate will have a growth out of the romantic implications and it will fullfill her arch. Who is pretty stabilished IMO
