why can't a woman be more like a man?

Ah yes. If the Armorer isn't an outright abusive parent, she must be a religious fanatic controlling her people through fear, and if she's not that, she must be a secret mole for the Empire. If she wasn't trying to brainwash Bo-Katan in episode four, then surely her support for her now is just a ruse, right?

What sinister agenda are we going to dream up if this one doesn't pan out? She was a Sith all along?

I mean, it can't possibly be that a woman in a position of authority is just a woman in a position of authority doing her job as best she can. That'd just be silly, right?
