Board Thread:General Grimm Discussion/@comment-5137743-20160902200926

One of the many things I truly enjoy about the show is the lack of any 'weaker sex' motif. In power terms, the women generally outdo the men, and every character has felt and shown fear, Wesen, human or Grimm.

Personally, for example, if I were looking to eliminate Monroe and Rosalee, I would definitely take her out first, since I believe he would go berserk and fight heedlessly, whereas when I've seen someone injure Rosalee's loved ones (with the exception of Hex-Juliette), I don't remember them making it to the end of the episode. Likewise, once she's aware of the 'other world', Juliette needs help, like Nick, but not a 'protector'.

On a near complete tangent, I also relish the very different social skills shown by any number of major and minor characters, which always seem so suitable to their natures and functions. The bluntness of Uncle Felix, despite the range of his vocabulary, bespeaks a man whose general company is centuries dead and not talking back. The best example, for me, is Trubel, as Jacqueline Toboni makes words like "I missed you too" unfamiliar, powerful and disquieting all at once in the mouth of a young woman who has had no one.
