Uh, guys, male empowerment is fun and all, but do recall this is a thread about shoujo manga.
You know, the product made by women (for the most part), for women (for the most part). People aren't discussing scantily-clad women in wet shirts and harem manga for boys and what they do to the female image. They're discussing the way the female characters in shoujo manga serve as role models, negatively, involving things like a girl's self-esteem, her expectations of what she should prioritize (see the "lack of existentialism" hypothesis above), how she should expect her boyfriend to treat her and vice versa, and so on.
