But wait — isn't it a little weird that finding new roles for women now means rebooting male ones?

Yes, it certainly does. Write new ones or continue the story but hand it off to a new (female) crew. Like Ghostbusters. But enough with the gender-/racebending. Give women and minorities their own strong archetypes instead.

It's like they want the good characters from good movies, but they're too lazy to make up their own.

No... They need to be the same as the withe males... but different...

Women used to have their own strong archetype: the mother that will do anything to protect their children. But motherhood is not good anymore. Now you need to be a strong action figure with a career. But hell! Don't make them a "man with boobs"! ... Those people are never fucking happy.

And you know, the all female gosthbusters, let's be honnest, if there was such a job as ghostbusters (and it would involve risk and action and going around with a proton pack to shoot at ghost), the field would be completly dominated by men. Women wouldn't choose such a profession. Yes, some would, so I wouldn't mind a there were a woman in the crew but if you see a all female crew of gosthbusters, you know this is not the natural order of things; it only happens because of some feminist agenda pushing.
