RE: Batwoman is a hard pass for me
I'd like to point out another thing here that'll add to driving you nuts. This show isn't just a "women can do what men can do" because THIS woman is 125 pounds soaking wet. She's not just doing what a 125 man could do, she's doing what a 225 pound man would have trouble doing.
...take the Punisher or Daredevil ( I realize these are from the MCU but theoretically they all exist inside the same laws of physics that we all do) Those vigilantes are driven and equipped with gear and well trained, as she is, but they are also REALLY BIG AND STRONG.
This character is the size of a high school quarterback yet able to lay waste to bad guys twice her size with ease....? Bad guys who, since they are paid as hired muscle, are tough and have been in a fight once or twice. Meaning they have been punched before and were able to continue fighting...otherwise they wouldn't be paid as hired muscle.
Because she is a woman we're all supposed to clap when a 200 pound goon is knocked out cold by someone half their size...give me a f*cking break. If they picked a woman with the build of Chyna ( of WWE ) or at least an MMA fighter who looks like she lives in a gym...I could at least believe a punch or kick could do some damage to a lifetime criminal. But this girl? We've all heard the term "plot armor" I'm gonna call this it's "vagina armor". If you have a vagina you are instantly as powerful as a man twice your size and weight. and the ole mass x acceleration = force equation does not apply to you...because that is sexist apparently.
From what we see of this preview her adversaries are some kind of mercenary/private security force. That are HIRED and PAID to inflict and absorb violence. They are trained, they have weapons and gear...and they all out weight her by a good 100 pounds. So...aside from "vagina armor" how exactly does she stand a chance in hell of beating several of them at a time? She will...just you wait. She'll wade through whole squads of them because girl power.
