There's lots of brilliant female tv characters, historical figures, celebs etc. Whose you're favourite and why?

Oh man. For TV characters there are a bunch. Xena, Buffy, Kira Nerys...I love strong women. And Donna Noble - strong in a different way, likeable and annoying and relatable. Dana Scully for being smart and skeptical.

For real people, I guess I think Marie Curie was pretty badass. Physicist, chemist, female scientist in a time when women were pretty much never taken seriously. Her research into radioactivity revolutionized so much of science and medicine and she did it in the face of soooo much misogyny and xenophobia. She seems like such an interesting woman.

I looooooovveee Buffy, I thought the final season was incredible. I really like how Willow became so strong as well.
