I swear, I am getting so tired of strong and independent women in fiction. Sci Fi settings is one thing, because that science allow them to be augmented and enhanced. But the last book with humans vs alien wars was "Terms of enlistment." The world building was perfect. But at boot camp the protagonist observed an equal gender ratio! In what world, past, present or future would females want to join a war where they are more likely to die in battle than to survive? It ruined everything.

But past and fantasy books are one thing on its own.
Magic: If magic did in fact exist, I doubt that women would be good at it. At most, they would have their own gender exclusive battles. Like the women's chess championship. Or the women's math and physics olympiads. Since they cannot compete with men.
Physical stuff: Female warriors? Not even female archers can compete with male archers. Since bows require a lot of upper body strength.

Is there a way to bypass this gender crap? I don't want to read about strong and independent women. We get forced that shit daily in the real world. I want to escape feminism.
