> Why So Many Mythological Monsters Are Female
Went through half the article and never found a quantitative comparison between male and female monsters. What is "so many" here? There are 3 or 4 examples in the article, how is it representative?
Even buying into the premise of the article, isn't it what we talk about when we want representation? Aren't women also allowed to be monsters? Do they always have to be virtuous?
