Hmmm... let's see... There are so many things Xena has done... these are just a few:
--Killed all the greek gods making way for the one true God.
--Gave birth to 'the messenger of Eli' (a direct reference to Christianity) who was immaculately conceived.
--Saved the world countless times from evil- including taking on the Romans and defeating the entire Persian army by herself.
--Cast Lucifer into Hell.
--Saved Ulysses and helped him restring his bow (although he never knew it).
--Through various actions and philosophies, there is no doubt in my mind that Xena is a Republican- quite possibly a libertarian.
--Plus, Lucy Lawless has stated publically that she does not believe in the 'glass ceiling' for women, she rebukes the idea of being a role model, told all her hardcore Xena fans to 'cut the cord!' when they were pissed over the show's finale, puts her family above all else- including her career, AND she is a die-hard Red Wings and Michigan State fan. Can't get much better than that.
I just realized that we're arguing apples and oranges. Different powers and enemies. Different time eras. I just hope that some girls and woman understand that they may have to learn to fight their own battles and to be strong.
