Without getting involved in the whole feminist/anti-feminist debate bandwagon I'm just going to say: There is a market (read: audience) for everything and anything and the human race is completely screwy.
Just think about that.
I'd like to say more but I'm not really all that good with philosophical debates so I won't sully the waters. However, I'd like to think that it should be possible to be able to enjoy something as long as it isn't self-destructive or harmful, without having to worry about sub-text or message or double standards. Doesn't seem to be the case though.
I do know that as cool and awesome as a character like Revy is I would be stupendously hesitant to meet her in real life, and it has nothing to do with gender. Although she would make a great drinking buddy I guess - without her guns and a bar with less of a hair trigger environment and hopefully there are lots of witnesses.
