In some cases, yes. Women can dominate men stories. Take 'Gone with the Wind' as an example. Scarlett O'Hara is a very strong - willed woman. Her actions and desires, such as her pursuit of Ashley and her relationship with Rhett Butler, are central to the story. She often takes the initiative and her character overshadows the male characters at times.
In some movies, women dominate men stories because of the nature of the plot. If the story is about a female - led revolution or a female's journey of self - discovery, it's natural for women to be in the dominant position. Like in 'Mulan', Mulan's story of disguising as a man to fight in the army is the core of the movie. Her courage and determination dominate the narrative, and the male characters are more in the supporting roles in her story.
Women usually dominate through sheer size and strength. They can control the environment and actions of the tiny men with ease.
Well, one reason could be that it provides a form of empowerment for female characters. It might also be a response to the underrepresentation of strong female leads in some mainstream media. Another possibility is that it allows for unique and interesting storylines that break away from the norm.
Maybe. In recent years, there has been a push for more diverse and inclusive storytelling, which could include stories where girls dominate men. But it's hard to say if it's a completely new trend as there have probably been such stories in the past, just not as prominent.
One example could be the story of the 'wise old woman' in some folktales. These old women often use their wisdom to outwit younger characters or solve difficult problems in the village. For instance, in Japanese folktales, there are old women who possess secret knowledge about nature and use it to help the community during tough times.
One possible reason could be the exploration of power dynamics in a fictional context. It might be a way to break traditional gender roles and create more diverse and interesting storylines.
Not really in mainstream literature. However, in some sub - cultures or niche fictional works, there might be some. But they are not widely known to the general public.
There are some stories in the realm of alternative sexual literature where women are portrayed as sexually dominant over men. For example, in some BDSM - themed fictional stories. But this is a very niche area and should be consumed with an understanding of its fictional and often consensual - within - the - story context. In real - life relationships, healthy sexual relationships are based on mutual respect and equality, not so much on one - sided dominance.
One possible reason is that older women are often seen as more experienced and confident. In femdom stories, this experience and confidence can translate into a dominant role. They may have more life experience which gives them an air of authority.
Another factor could be the market demand. Readers, especially female readers, are increasingly interested in stories where girls are in the dominant position. Publishers, noticing this trend, encourage more such stories. For instance, in the genre of fantasy literature, there are many stories where a girl is the chosen one with special powers, while male characters are either her allies or antagonists. This caters to the desire of readers to see female characters in powerful and leading roles.
