It seems like I'm a bit late
1. Character designs and characters are completely different things. I like my "sexist" character designs a lot. Saying that girls in stories can't be attractive is like saying guys in stories can't be attractive. It's just retarded.
2. Strong female characters should be able to be to stand on their own. They are strong characters that happen to be female. They should be able to do something other than follow their love interest around and aren't defined by their love interest.
3. To build on that:
a. They should have goals, to have sex with the mc doesn't count (most of the time).
b. They should have flaws, being in love with a shitty mc doesn't count (no exceptions unless you can convince me otherwise).
c. They should try to achieve their goals and overcome their flaws. The mc can help, and probably should if they are in a relationship, but it shouldn't be "mc solves all problems so we can get to part that has the two of them having sex asap".
