I love that Xena has all different religions and beliefs and even when Xena knows hers is true, she doesn’t deny others their religion. (Which, in fact, they are all valid within the Xena-verse)

I love that Xena has different types of love, family, and friendship and never says that one kind is more valuable then another.

I love that Xena is shown to be inhumanly strong even though she is, in fact, mortal. So many shows have men doing impossible stunts- to have one with a female doing the same is wonderful.

I love that Xena has all different types of people with all different kinds of strengths, from physical to intelligence, and even a kind heart. Each one is important and all of them worthy of being a “hero”.

I love that Xena is a redemption story. I love that things come up from her past and she still stands up for what’s right. That she doesn’t run or hide or make excuses.

I love that Xena is a super tough fighter but she knows how to do things like embroidery as well. As the warrior princess herself says, she has many skills.

I love that Xena is in charge of her own sexuality. That Gabrielle is considered sweet and innocent, but having sex doesn’t suddenly “steal” that innocence away from her.

There is just so much to love about this show. It has it’s flaws, sure, but it does so much right.

“Congratulations. You managed to touch someone.”
“That’s not exactly what I had in mind. I wanted to change violent people into people of peace, not actors. That is what she said, right? Deep down, she’s a thespian?”

4.17 – The Play’s The Thing – Or, an hour-long celebration of what I have christened Gabrielle’s Pretentious Douchey College Hipster Phase. (Bless her.) Let’s just do yoga in this field of flowers, Xena! Check me out with my new haircut and my mystical tattoos! Violence is so mainstream – my play’s called A Message Of Peace. You probably haven’t heard of it~ …
