8 Netflix Shows With Fierce Female Characters
Elle

I don’t know about you, but I love to watch shows that make me think "Sh*t, I want to her that girl when I grow up." Whether it’s being a bada** lawyer, trying to bounce back from a divorce or just kicking life’s butt even in hard times — these leading ladies are always killin’ the game.

1. How to Get Away with Murder

Let’s face it Viola Davis is a fabulous actress and you just have to Annalise Keating even when she pisses you off.

2. Scandal

Olivia Pope's crisis management firm, Olivia Pope and Associates may or may not have committed a crime here and there, but Olivia’s connections are goals.

3. Weeds

For 8 seasons, Nancy Botwin finesses her way through her sh*t show of a life.

4. Quantico

Alex Parrish making her way through boot camp as a promising FBI recruit.

5. Love

I haven’t seen the second season of this Netflix Orginal because I’m a fake fan, but you’ll love this show from the first episode. You’ll also hate it because you’ll think about why the heckie can’t people just be happy in a relationship together.

6. Revenge

This is one of my all-time favorite shows — Emily Thorne and Victoria Grayson aren’t really gals I’d like to mess with.

7. Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce

After Abby McCarthy’s separation from her husband, the self-help author writes about people with family issues while juggling her own struggles and family life.

8. Girlboss

You’ll love this Netflix Orginal based on the creation of the fashion empire Nasty Gal, inspired by Sophia Amoruso's best-selling book.

If you’re going to watch Netflix all summer, why not watch shows with fierce female leads?

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
