What is with the trope of strong girl characters (like teens and kids) growing up to be docile domestic housewives with no character substance/depth/personality whatsoever completely going against like everything they stood for and identified with when they were younger as if thats just what happens to women when they’re adults

Someone who has revolved their life around a set of hard morals and defining traits and characteristics from basically childhood to young adult hood isn’t just going to completely flip around because they got married or turned 30. this only ever happens to the girl characters. marriage might as well be the the equivalent of killing off a girl character because the second they’re married their personality disappears and they’re shoved off as a background character when they used to be a pivotal character in the series 

it’s Bad Writing scoobs

I think the way to do it right is mrs curtis from FMA who never once stopped being a badass fighter and uses the fact that shes a housewife as a badass one liner.
