Ladies are taking over
A few days ago this year's Hugo awards took place. Recognising the best in Science Fiction in both printed and visual media from the past year. And there was an noticeable trend among this year's winners. For genre that some consider to be Male dominated most of the prizes went to Women. One of the most striking wins was the Wonder Woman beating the Best Picture Oscar winner The Shape of Water to Best Long Form Dramatic Presentation award, both have both have Female protagonists but the former was actually directed by a (Patty Jenkins) Woman. We shall have to wait and see if SF somewhat mysngotic image is now gone.
