here's the thing though: you can have a strong, vulnerable (even female!) protagonist.
the trick is don't write a "female protagonist" write a "protagonist who happens to be female" and include actual character flaws and inadequacies. even using something as fucking awful on every level as "post rape is the only way a woman can find empowerment" is horribly fucking damaging and the developer should feel absolutely, utterly on every single level a s h a m e d.
