2. Female hero
   An etymologically unmotivated analysis of [hero] as he-ro. ([hero] is Greek; he is rooted in Old English).

Many consider it reduntant, as [hero] is the gender neutral term; [heroine] the gender specific term.

[Couch Potatoe]

A hero/heroine is someone who fights for human rights in general. Expanding on general heroism, a Shero is a man or woman who stands up specifically for female rights.

In order to be considered as a Shero, one must DO something to help the womens cause, or be a historical figure who was unconventional in their thinking for that time of what females can do.

Feminism is the belief in equality for all women; sheroism is the action.

[Becky]

A mythical creature thought to dwell in the Allegheny Mountain region of Pennsylvania. Known for its erratic behavior and pension for all things violent the Shero is thought to be the Anglicized German word for snipe. As in a snipe hunt.

[Raeanne Dimick]

A Stand alone word meaning, Bringer of Destruction, but could also be used as a name. Shero meaning Destruction, starting from its roots as a kid who was young, wanted to bring the world together. But then after a tragedy occurred, his feelings turned dark and brought destruction every where he went. The people with the name Shero ( Ultra Super Rare Name By the Way ) are usually doomed and will have a horrible future awaiting them.

[Tina]

A female lead character who kicks ass.
A shero is different from a heroine in that a heroine is merely the main female character, to be a shero one must do a certain amount of kicking ass and taking down names. Lucy from a Tale of Two Cities and Barbara from Night of the Living Dead were both heroines. Sheros they most certainly were not.
