Tropes I Don't Like

Girl VS. the World/Government

(I had to use this picture because it's so funny and accurate)

This is another trope common in YA books. The majority of YA books I have read have main protagonists that are female (most if not all of them also being teenagers). While many female protagonists are well created, other times they might be whiny and don't get many things done.
I find this trope a lot in more recent dystopian books most of the time.

Typically, the main female protagonist is trying to fight back against the government (or even the entire world) because of specific reasons. The government might be corrupted, a war is going on, people dying, etc.
Divergent and the Hunger Games can be examples of this.

This female protagonist is also considered strong and heroic. They might even be the "Chosen One" with power that no one else has and they are the only one who can save the world.

While the minor characters may consider this female character as strong and heroic. They are sometimes emotionally weak and have some family issues.
Romance is sometimes involved in this protagonist's life and they will act irrational for unnecessary reasons the author creates (but acting irrational in a romantic relationship is actually pretty normal).
Sometimes they don't always know how to control their emotions during times they should, but when something happens like a character dying or anything traumatic. It makes sense for the main female protagonist (or any protagonist in general) to have their emotions scattered. Again, normal.
Some of these female protagonists you find in YA books can also be stubborn and reckless.

Personally, I don't hate this trope as much as some others. But I notice that this one is too overused in certain genres. I do enjoy seeing female protagonists in conflicts, but they don't always have to be about a corrupted government, war, or even romantic conflicts. Sometimes they may have conflicts against themselves and I find that fascinating in characters.

Some of these female protagonists are actually great characters that people can relate with in a positive way. Even though some of them have to do with this trope, the author still creates them like new, three-dimensional characters.

Of course, these protagonists can risk being considered Mary-sues. As I mentioned before, sometimes these characters are "chosen ones" and have abilities that no one else has. These abilities and strengths may hide some of the characters flaws/weaknesses (if they have any) and can be seen as perfect. I tend to notice that these Mary-sue characters lack an interesting personality and have very little to no character development.

I feel like I'm done with this trope, if I think of anything else to do with this trope I might make a part two for it.
The next trope I do will most likely be one I hate, so I guess be prepared for that.
