We have gone to space and we have enter so called male professions in droves. This was not the case when Tolkein wrote LOTR by Peter Jackson doing this he gave woman characters to identify with. Who were the same sex as they were.As for violence being a male trait well that may be but I don't see what Eoywn did as violence for violences sake she was willing to die for the people and the King she loves just like her brother was willing to do. I happen to think she was just as feminine and srtong as Galadriel. I think that was why woman were cheering I cheered for several reasons one is that the evil was defeated and Eoywn got to fulfill her dream of being heroic and having honor. I also clapped when Pippin found his courage.  When I play RPGs I always play a female and sometimes they are very strong woman who are also very feminine. I happen to personally love being a woman and I don't feel as if to be equal to a man I need to be masculine hey I can like shoes and babies and worry about my butt being to big as well as understand loyalty and courage and sacrifice. I can fantasize that I am strong sword weilding amazon and also fantasize that I made playmate of the year or Miss America. All three woman Arwen, Eoywn, and Galadriel were strong beautiful and feminine woman who just happen to choose to do things to fulfill themselves differently.</blockquote>
