A lot of movies use jealousy, romance, or trauma (mostly sexual violence) to “explain” a woman’s behavior, while male villains are more often allowed to just be ambitious, power-hungry, chaotic, ideological, or simply cruel. Like why do they make female characters get randomly SAd like it's the only plot they're supposed to have. It's weird that they're making it so normal. Anyways I want some purely evil villains like a woman who's evil bc duh she is. Or at least give her some personality other than her being a woman. Being a woman is amazing but that's not all a person is ryt? Let women be as complex, terrifying, charismatic, or unhinged as male villains are. The only example I know is Hela from Thor Ragnarok. I want a villain people will admire, like how people say Thanos is a great villain and admire his ideologies, even though he's wrong. Like that. Also why do they always make female villains seductive most of the time? Just let them be evil without turning it into that trope every time.
