'True Detective' season 3 finally offers us some realistic female characters who hold the story together by themselves
Women in 'True Detective' have never really been able to control their narrative and have always been looked at through the male gaze — thankfully with season 3, this is changing
It's no secret that the last two seasons of 'True Detective' have been criticized time and time again for making single dimensional female characters. From whores to mothers and frivolous side chicks, female characters on the show have always been found themselves in muddy waters or making the heroes look good — or both. These women have never really been able to control their narrative and have always been looked at through the male gaze. Thankfully with season 3, this is changing.
