A show for boys, but with a girl!

Just yesterday Nickelodeon premiered in the United States, "The Legend of Korra." The show targets boys aged 8 - 14, but features a strong female lead. While the shows predecessor, "Avatar: The Last Air Bender" featured a happy-go lucky male child, this show uses a female teen who in the first episode is demonstrated to be a "strong fighter, yet weak in mind." While this description is apt for the character, I think there will certainly be camps formed among feminists everywhere whether this is a good or bad thing. I personally think this type of character who is not all beauty, but is focused, is in fact a good thing, since the character isn't portrayed to be that pretty at all compared to other Avatar females. Still I'm sure the debates will begin. So let them begin.
