Will a female character ever win a fight? [Manga]
So far, in the series, EVERY time a female character has fought a male character, the female has lost. At this point, the phenomenon has gone beyond mere coincidence, as the plot seems to bend over backwards to make them lose. Examples:
Hinata has one of the most powerful bloodlines of the village. However, her only fight is against someone who has the same bloodline and can use it better. Jounins are supposed to be masses of pure ass-kicking. However, the two female jounins we see get put against people like Orochimaru and Itachi, so of course they get their asses kicked. Sakura . . . well . . . is Sakura. Now Tsunade is one of the Sennin, and should kick ass by every right. Of course, she has some mysterious phobia which causes her to lose to Kabuto, and which dissapears as soon as its purpose it served. So now, the question is, will a female character ever win, or will Naruto continue to set back the femenist movement? |

Actually, it was Tsunade AND Jiraya vs. Orochimaru without any arms, hardly a fair fight. Even then, you'll notice that it was Tsunade's slug that was defeated first.
The Shikamaru fight is debatable, though it was obvious that Tenmari was outclassed. |

Tenten is mickey mouse in disguise, so he's male right? lol j.k
anyway, yeah now that you mention it, does seem strange... although, we didn't actually see any scenes, but Kurenai was part of the jounin group left standing after the fights in the chuunin tourny arena Vs the sound and sand nin. Also the Female ANBU probably kicked some arse too. We just don't see it. |

Tsunade OWNED Oro AND Mande. She got stabbed, sliced, kicked, punched... and at the end she was still standing firm. Then one punch from her makes Oro run like a little girl screaming back to where he came from. Jiraya on the other hand got owned by Oro, i dont think he even landed one decent attack on Oro, but he has the excuse that he was drugged. Tsunade also beat Naruto with 1 finger. Temari won against Shikamaru even though he made a fool out of her (he still ran out of chakra at the end, and what was coming was a can of whoop a$$ on him) You could say Ino beat the woman from the sound team while on the first stage of the Chunnin exam. |

Tsunade beats Naruto twice.
Plus, Orochimaru talks about her killing off anyone who knew she was a medical ninja. Also. Naruto gets pounded by the women he has Konohamaru try and sexy no jutsu, and a bunch of female Narutos beat Ebisu. |

And what kind of a ninja fears BLOOD?? You tend to see a fair amount of that in battle. Hell, what kind of healer fears blood? Quote:

She wasn't always afraid of blood, she got the phobia after losing a lot of important people to her. |
