Okay, so I’m talking to one of my friends last week about this whole “feminist hero” problem, and she says the following: “Well, you know the real problem, don’t you? It’s that the only true feminist heroes out there are lesbians.” But really, who are the feminist heroines? What do they look like?

Some of those conversations took place with men who were legitimately interested. Which made me think: why isn’t there a “feminist romantic hero” category for book browsers?

About Weslie

I am a rebellious writer of mostly sweet, always sexy romance and chick-lit books. When I blog, my writing becomes a little less sweet and a little more snarky. I have feminist ideals and a lot to say about powerful women. I’m taking down the patriarchy, one romance hero at a time.
