Being in a relationship with the Avatar has a power imbalance, it’s not like she’s one of the most powerful benders of her time. Nope. Hey, I know who he could end up with! Toph! Because she’s actually strong, unlike Katara, isn’t she?
Nothing in her life she ever did because she wanted to. Nope. Because she’s just so scared and vulnerable. After all, we all know Katara’s the type of meek characters who’s afraid to speak her mind. She needs a big, strong firebender by her side who can stand up for her.
Feminist icon? World hero? Saviour? What are you saying? She needs to be taught feminism. Someone go and tell this girl there’s more to her than serving men because, clearly, she isn’t aware. She’s no saviour. She needs to be saved.
Because Katara of the Southern Water Tribe is nothing but a victim. That’s all she is and that’s all she’ll ever be.
