Are there any books with a good female protagonist who actually acts in a female way?

>How do you write wiomen so well?
I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability.

A woman can really only aspire to be a man if she wishes to elevate her spirit or mind to anything higher than baseline female "consciousness".

I thought Katniss from Hunger Games was one of the most relatable female characters I'd ever read.

Yes all books that were written by homosexuals and all books written by incels are accurate portrayals of female phenomenology. Straight chads cannot understand the depths of the female noemata but this is a blessing, who would ever want the anima to reign?
