People Who Like To Read Can Get Caught Up In Women Adventurer Stories

By Linda Wallace


While it may seem that only females of various ages want to read about female superheroes, one may be surprised that some men enjoy reading these as well. While different genres may appeal to a certain type of reader, two things that a story must have is a good plot and believable characters. Many women adventurer stories that have been written in recent are sometimes based on real people.

One may ask why this is important. There are many reasons and most relate to the feminist movements from nearly half a century ago. Women fought for the right to be heard and respected in environments where their input is equal to that of males in a similar role. Although Wonder Woman goes back to the 1940s, she was not very prominent until the early 1970s.

Instead of reading about Aqua Girl in the comics, readers should know that girls can have nontraditional employment. Job titles can range from game hunter to ocean engineer. What a lot of people do not realize is that women can excel in these jobs and are a lot more fun than sitting at a desk all day.

Girls and boys can learn a lot from stories about female heroes that make a difference. Whether they are fighting crime or being involved with advanced technology, there is always room for an entertaining medium. When a character is written well, it can pique reader interest.

However, one complaint by feminists and other women who worked in law enforcement was that some of the more popular shows were unrealistic. One was that there was too much emphasis on keeping the characters glamorous, even in dangerous situations. Others complaints ranged from a lack of diversity.

The great thing about the telling of adventurous accounts is that fiction can seem realistic when written well. In this day, there are few boundaries in telling a good story. It can be a fantasy, suspenseful, or even humorous. However, in the current cultural climate, it seems that more readers want to read more about their favorite heroine and less about glamor or their love life.

In the current age, it does without saying that young girls should have a positive role model in their lives. However, young men and boys need to learn early that females are not just worthy of respect but should be seen as equal. Although young men often grow up thinking about the flaws most women have, exposing them to a strong female figure early can help them ease into a changing society.

These periods of growth in strong female characters has led us to the present where women hold positions of power or are leaders in their community. Now, storylines have characters with more depth and there is less emphasis on looks. The same way these roles empowered girls of the 1970s and 1980s, young people today only see a person in charge and not gender.

These days, young girls need to see as many positive images as possible. Oftentimes, parents who let their young children have online access cannot control or explain every image that pops on the screen. This is why exposing them to stories with a strong female lead early in the development is a good idea.
