I agree with the overall "man and women are different - embrace it!" theme but... Molly Weasley aggravates me deeply. I liked her right up until I realized that she wasn't EVER going to take Dumbledore to task over Harry. (And that slapping Hermione bit w/ a lame gift was crap. If you're going to adopt kids then by God adopt them. No treating them differently when you read a rag!) In fact, I found her determined blindness disturbing.

Maybe Minerva McGonagall as a stong woman? She never has a date, isn't gorgous, is past her prime, and is a teacher. A really stern bad-ass teacher. (Although her blind moments irk me too.)

Hmmmm.... I'm totally behind FMA's Izumi as strong-woman of the year. Her, in the AB world = priceless
