We\u2019ve come a long way from fairytales. Rather than being princesses in towers waiting for their shiny knights, the emancipation of women figures in stories has demonstrated that girls can indeed run the world – and even save the day.<\/p>

And this doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that they need to take on masculine characteristics as well. Women have found authority in their own ways – sometimes as the sassy ingenue brimming with good intentions, other times as the nurturing protective mother who can dispense wisdom as much as bullets.<\/p>

Through the decades, representations of the empowered female in entertainment has been an inspirational force towards equality. Here are eight shows that have made their mark as classic examples of girl power.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

If someone were to tell you that a massive cyborg is hunting you down to kill you, it\u2019s likely most would just quake in their boots and beg for mercy. Not Sarah Conner.<\/p>

Linda Hamilton, who plays the character, evolved beautifully through the first movie Terminator<\/em>. She goes from running prey to stoic defender, but it was in the sequel that she really blossomed as a different creature thanks to motherhood. Protecting her son turned her into a fearless goddess, and while the series might have made Arnold Schwarzenegger an international star, Hamilton\u2019s spirited one-liners in the face of her enemies have endeared her to many as a classic heroine.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Jodie Foster\u2019s filmography runs impressive, but ask around and most will likely point to her portrayal of detective Clarice Starling in Silence of the Lambs<\/em> as one of her best award-winning achievements. In the process of baiting an incarcerated psychiatrist for information to find a psychopathic killer, the investigator has to share her own personal trauma. It was this blend of vulnerability and steely resolve that made her pursuit riveting to watch.<\/p>

The actress\u2019s own personal process to obtain the role was just as inspirational. While the opportunity was first given to actresses like Michelle Pfeiffer and Meg Ryan, they rejected the controversial character. Director Jonathan Demme eventually gave Foster the role after considering her passionate and repeated requests, and her subsequent performance clearly showed just how capable she was.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Mean Girls<\/em> similarly focuses on teen schoolyard politics in America, but through the power play, one gets a sense of the life values that really matter as events unfold.<\/p>

As the new girl in school, Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan), is just trying to get by and not get into trouble. She makes friends with some of the outliers but is soon noticed by the school\u2019s most \u201celite\u201d girl trio, Regina, Karen and Gretchen. While she thrives well in their protection, she soon realises her false friendships and proceeds to orchestrate a fitting lesson for the backstabbing Regina.<\/p>

Adults may have plenty of responsibilities to keep to, but for teenagers like Devi Vishwakumar played by Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, growing pains are the worst – especially when your father suddenly passes away.<\/p>

Never Have I Ever<\/em> is a series that charts her tumultuous journey through high school in Los Angeles, and tackles everything from peer pressure, emerging sexuality to overbearing parents. Ramakrishnan breaks boundaries with her ethnic representation, while debunking stereotypes and sharing cultural points in one swoop. Feisty and assertive, the teenage comedy is today\u2019s beacon of female empowerment, no matter where you might come from.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
