Why are most female heroine pathetic!?

because they all wait for a beautiful, popular prince-like boy riding a white horse and coming to their rescue...
but Tavi has a list with strong female lead characters you could try if you want:

I dislike shoujo in general, whiny weak girls are too often used as the main character, but here is one you might enjoy - I actually like the female characters in this one ... most of them anyway ... http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/hakkenden/

I'll check them out. Thanks!!!

Nahhh, I read yaoi and there are SOMMME shoujos I like, but the ones where the main characters are guys lol. like what sakuracry said, the typical shoujo guy has princely-standards. and in yaoi, the guys vary.
