As a huge fan of femdom, I wish there were more female characters who were dominant. I really liked Monster Musume for the fact that the female cast is so secure with their sexuality, and dominant with it. What about you guys?

EDIT: I was referring to female characters who are dominant in ANY way: sexual, strength, lead role, etc.

Yes dominant females are always a plus as long as they aren’t abusive. Erza is a good example imo

The world needs more dominant badass females (if we're talking strictly romance, no physical abuse for shitty reasons)

Dominant, or equal to the others. And I don't mean the "Oh I'm a strong girl, ready for anything, I can do what any other boy could do!" and then get taken down a peg because she was apparently useless. It's not even about making a strong female lead, all you literally have to do is to not make the "strong" female lead not go through the same cliche situations of the damsel in distresses, yet they somehow always fuck it up.

I want more characters like the Major from Ghost in the Shell.

Dominant in which regard lmao? Being sexually dominant is different from being physically/verbally dominant. And if it's the latter, then there are already quite a few examples present (Mai from Bunny Girl, Hitagi from Monogatari, Lacia from Beatless, Akame from Akame ga Kill etc.)


But if I had to say I'd go with what @OnionKnightRises said, in that they're all equal.

I guess now it depends on how dominant you want your females to be lol. There still are quite a few sexually dominant females like Esdeth from Akame ga Kill, Miyako from Love me, Seriously, Rias and Akeno from HS DxD, Shera from How Not to Summon a Demon Lord but I understand your point; the ratio between "perfect" females/sexually driven ones is massively higher to the former

Yea I was a bit reluctant to include this one, but still, there are quite a few moments where Mai's clearly wearing the pants in the relationship

True, but the reverse happens with Sakuta as well sometimes too.

Dominant females to be dominated? Why yes. Not that I'm saying inequality in gender, I'm not. Putting the domination aside, they're generally great to me.

I don't want overt sexualization when it's out of place in narratives. When it happens out of place I think it's just a poor attempt at a distraction and enticement to cover flaws of a show, and if something has to do that in the first place unironically it's probably not a good series to begin with.

But no I wouldn't want femdom like that, I love women who have an imposing presence just like badass male characters. In that context considering my favorites list of Motoko Kusanagi, Olivier Armstrong, and Esdeath, I think women like this are in short supply and I want more of them.

I don't find it that important since I don't primarily watch romance anime.
Genres I watch frequently benefit more from proper world-building or well put-together jokes.

But now you mention it, there's indeed often just one sexually confident individual, even in romance anime.
I cannot think of any non-hentai tv anime series in which there's two sexually confident people.

This sums it up pretty well, we are in dire need of lesbian anime like Cross Ange.

as a lesbian, they’re good. i love a woman who can step on me. characters like grell sutcliffe, rize from tokyo ghoul and darkness from konosuba are great. there should definitely be more (above 18 year old) women who’re secure in their sexuality but aren’t unnecessarily sexualised,,,, if that makes sense.


That does make sense. I like fan service, obviously, but I feel that in a non-ecchi series, the sexualization of a character can distract me from really appreciating the substance the character has. But yeah, at the same time, I wish more female characters in anime were secure about their sexuality, instead of freaking out over things like a kiss.

I wouldn't mind more as long as the character is fleshed out and realistic, I was a huge fan of General Armstrong from FMAB, Bad ass, strong, a leader, and able to hold her own in combat. I am getting tired seeing females act like little children especially characters like Misato (not sayiing she's a terrible character in fact she's very realistic and well written, but I despise her and dont get why people like her), as long as we can have more like General Armstrong and less like Misato then im A OK.

Femdom is a nice fetish, but I wouldn't go so far as to demand more of it everywhere. Also it doesn't work if everyone is dominant, so you need submissive characters for that too.

Depending on what you mean, probably not. Generally I am into cute feminine girls and its hard for physically or sexually dominating girls to be cute or sincere in that sense. In romance anime especially it is the last thing in the world I want to see. Submissive all the way. In action or shounen anime it can be good, but a dominating girl is never waifu material in my books.

If the girls don't get blush every time the MC breathes, then it will be good enough for me.
How will a girl be dominant in an normal anime?
Dominant girls sound more like a hentai.

What is femdom? Fetish for feet?

When I say "dominant" I don't just mean dominant in a sexual way, but in personality: cool, strong, confident.

Femdom means female domination.

Oh
I call it "independent women/girls".
"Dominant girl" sounds like in a sexual way.

Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper.

Nothing sexist, I just happen to like more male MC (I am not gay though). I don't care if they are equally relevant to the plot.

Okay, here's my problem with your question.

If I want to see more female characters as lead protags, but I don't particularly care to see more female characters as dominant partners in romantic relationships because I'm just not a big romance genre fan anyway, what should I vote for?

edit: I voted yes anyway. whatever

I meant dominant in any way: romantic, sexual, or prowess, any way. I'll double check my original post to see if I clarified that.

WAIT WAIT WAIT.. Actually I really liked the relationship on Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai, it's very funny, and actually they are both doms, and fuck, Kaguya it's so sweet, I really loved her when she blushed;
