So here’s to the heroines who save the world and skip the slow dance. Here’s to the women in fiction who don't need a dress, a date, or a "happily ever after" that comes in a pair.
Reiterate: A heroine without a love interest isn’t “less than.” She’s often more —more focused, more self-defined, more surprising. The next time you pick up a book or watch a film, notice: does she need romance to be complete? Or is she already whole?
: Characters whose journeys center on finding their own path.
