Hello! I'm reaching out before making an edit to clarify a caqtegory label.
I've noticed that the "damsel in distress" label is being applied to characters like Kiara, Amy Rose and even Sonic, Link and Jack Sparrow.
However, baced on the actual trope definition, manyof these
- Resist capture
- Contribute to their own rescue
- Play active and heroic roles in their stories (Animation, Movies, films or books)
I'd like to propose replacing or redefining the "damsels" category with a more neutral label like "Rescued characters" to better reflect canon and avoid mislabeling.
My edits will be respectful, with clear summaries and no disruption. I'm happy to discuss this with you on the community.
Thank you!
