How to use "Heroine" in context?
The word "heroine" has been used to describe female characters in literature and film for centuries. As a woman, there is a sense in which you owe it to society to uphold the stereotypical notions of heroism and morality that are expected of women. This creates a pressure for women to portray specific traits such as compassion, intelligence, and independence in their roles as heroines. In recent years, however, there has been a renaissance of different kinds of female-led stories, which challenge the traditional notions of heroism. Female protagonists are no longer limited to roles as damsels in distress or sidekicks.
