"What was her justification, the fact that she was batshit and killed men?"
Probably. When reviewing the episode "Our Mrs. Reynolds", she said that the dark action girl Saffron was the only remotely feminist character, because she kicked Wash in the head. While Wash was being nice to her and trying to explain to Saffron how much he loved Zoe and why he was making a huge effort to not cheat on her. Because feminism is attacking an unarmed and unthreatening man, just because he annoys you.
Oh yeah, that one. Dear lord above. And the stupidest part was, she got called out on that one too, on her LJ account. A lot of people wrote in, saying that they were in interracial relationships or knew people who were and they weren't abused at all. Allecto said, and I quote, "Good for you". Without amending her statement or apologizing.
I also find it quite hypocritical that she considers any female character who shows signs of having a sex drive to be "unfeminist". Wasn't one of the waves of feminism the right to sexual freedom?
