I've spent the last couple of hours picking up toys strewn all over the house, the leftovers of my kids Christmas presents. It occurred to me that my mom got my daughter a heck of a lot of Star Wars stuff, lots of "Rey".
None of it was opened, she didn't ask me to open any of it, and when I brought the packages to her room and asked if she wanted to play Star Wars, I got a "Not now. I'm playing wif princesses."
That's my mom, the old school Feminist Gynosaur who wants women to kick ass. And that's my daughter, the girly Pink Princess who is totally unimpressed with girls who fight and kick ass.

What about Leia? She’s a princess. And a coke queen.

Your daughter prefers princesses to poorly written Mary Sues, that's a good sign.

I haven't raised her to like one or the other, this is entirely her own.
