The girl from Scandal?

[nickcarraway]

The Warrior.

feh...

Shooting at the walls of heartache... bang... bang.

Anyone else like me totally done with this fictitious boss-girl warrior crap? These idiot bitches have watched too many Black Widow movies and have confused Hollywood with reality. I always tell these Xena Warrior Princess wannabes that everyone has a plan until they get punched in the nose. I follow up with the wisdom that a punch from a man is a whole other world from whatever slap-and-tickle fights they have been in, if any.

If there an invasion, everyone is a soldier.

Having been “pierced by sharp objects” does not necessarily make her a “deadly warrior”, or even a combatant.

[pepsi_junkie]

Pierced by sharp objects, her bones suggest she fought and died in battle, likely over 800 years ago.

She was stabbed to death. Therefore she was a warrior.

Of perhaps someone has an agenda.

[vpintheak]

Sure...

female warrior maybe

[ansel12]

Not just a warrior, a “deadly warrior” which makes her sound exception among warriors.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Her skeleton identified her as female? Everybody in the 21st century knows that is archaic thinking.

[nickcarraway]

They found a tag with her pronouns?

“Anyone else like me totally done with this fictitious boss-girl warrior crap? “

My God, I was done with it 30 or 40 years ago. CGI has made it 1,000 times worse. Now waif-like girls toss around 300 pound men like tissues on the wind. I’m so tired of suspending disbelief on that crap.

That’s why I’m mainly watching movies from the 30s to 1960 and old TV shows. I’m really enjoying “Death Valley Days” right now.

She was probably murdered and put in the same cemeteries as the warriors to hide the crime. Or, she protested the killing of her warrior husband/lover, and killed as an example to others that might be thinking the same way as her.

A five-foot warrior woman is a ridiculous assumption.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

That's got to be it! Those mylar name tags last for millennia. Can't do battle without a pronoun tag. Why, those young Americans who landed on Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword all had tags.

"All you They/Thems -- you're the first to go up those cliffs!"

"Yes, Sarge"

The fact she was pierced like a pincushion doesn’t mean she was a warrior or in battle. If she was a warrior, it would imply she was less than formidable.
