Comment on What can we do when something is too vast to provide representative examples for?

I’ll join the chorus.
If something is scientifically proven, just tell them to read the books.
If someone says there are no strong female protagonists, just name three and walk away.
Don’t engage with negative people

Naming three is the issue

Alien, Aliens, Alien Resurrection!
I’m also a fan of 1960s comic strip/pulp novel heroine Modesty Blaise, a teenage refugee turned crime boss turned spy.

The point is that you shouldn’t have to put in the effort to name anything at all. They’re trolling you. They know female protagonists exist. They’re just trolling.
