Fiction / Writing Q&A / Re: Male Protagonists and/or Antagonists - Strong or Weak?

My male protagonists (I say that as though I've written more than one story) are usually weaker in terms of sheer brute force, however, as I don't like domination stories or things of that nature, they will often have some other attribute that can even the score. Things like some sort of super power, superior fighting technique, a sword  . But sometimes, the score can't really be evened

You sound really apprehensive. Don’t worry… we’re only human. Relax and delight in the privilege we all have in exploring our crazy fetishes! 
Oh, and I do beg to differ... the movie industry is just as cut throat and as vile as any other industry I know. Which sector of the movie industry were you referring to?
Peace and Love,
~Mimi I 'spose. I guess I'll just have to jump in and see. Anyway's I was referring to the book industry, as I have been lauded for my talents as a writer, but I don't think I'm good enough to make a decent living as such, because that industry is harder to deal with, from what I've read, than the movie or music industries. Not necessarily in terms of shadiness, but that it's more quality driven, which while good, unfortunately means that it's far more difficult to be successful in.

I know I seem to be repeating myself but, I've been mulling it over for a while and while editing the aforementioned story (for what must be the 7th or 8th time  ), I have been wondering, how well received would a story which includes certain sexual strangeness, bordering on (and perhaps breaching) the grotesque be here? I promise it is a well written, and thoughtful story, even those occasional strange sequences. It wasn't till I came here that I was even worried about it, despite originally not wanting to put that stuff in my story at all, at least not so soon (that is, in the story I have written so far, which amounts to the first chapter in a potential saga).

This member of the choir likes be preached-to. I couldn't agree more with you. Those who would have all women weak and passive say that, if women become strong and assertive, they lose their femininity. As far as I'm concerned, other than (possibly) a stone-butch woman in a lesbian butch-femme relationship, or if an FBB overdoes the steroids, it's impossible for any woman to lose even some of her femininity. To me, assertive, strong, confident "body-aware" women, as you put it, are MORE feminine than the timid, skinny, passive girls because they have enhanced themselves both physically in strength and shapeliness, and in mind. They have imporoved themselves as women and have ceased to hate their body, to diet in order to shrink it, (which I loathe, urgh!  ) but instead are revelling in their female, muscular curves and the strength, power and sensuality of the bodies. That's feminine. That's sexy. Actually, no, it's not sexy - it's mind-blowingly, trouser-tentingly supersexy.  Yikes, I need a cold shower after that!  I understand they said the same thing about suffragettes. And many of the ones saying it were themselves women
