I guess it would just be in line with reality. The fiercest warriors in history were and are male. This is correctly represented in movies thus far. I have nothing against women empowerment, but I have a hard time believing that the strongest Jedi warrior who's going to go around and beat Sith lords is going to be a chick.....cuz there's not one dude out there stronger than her ? This is a marketing gimmick is all it is and not in line with reality. I don't think a woman in my life will have a problem with me saying or having this viewpoint.
Movies awesome. Dailey ridleys performance is awesome. Excellence all around.
