I guess it's evidence of my alienation from mainstream culture that I have no clue about any of the characters you reference. :P
I think that women are usually written first as women, then as characters ... whereas men are just written as characters. So you end up with a lot of female characters who are hard for real women to relate to, because most of us are human beings first... not so defined by our genders.
