The Flash Has a Major Problem With Its Most Shocking Death – bsmaurya  The Flash has a major problem with its most shocking death: it’s a textbook example of fridging. Fridging is a term used to describe the killing off of a female character solely to motivate a male character. In the case of The Flash, Kara Danvers/Supergirl is fridged in order to give Barry Allen/The Flash a reason to become more powerful.

There are several problems with this. First, it’s lazy writing. The writers could have found a more creative way to motivate Barry without killing off a beloved character. Second, it’s harmful to female representation. It sends the message that female characters are only valuable as plot devices to be used and discarded. Third, it’s insensitive to fans of Supergirl. Many fans were invested in her character and her journey, and her death was a disappointment.

‘The Flash’ boss on that shocking death and

The Flash is not the only show that has fridged female characters. It’s a problem that’s been going on for decades, and it’s time for it to stop. Writers need to be more mindful of how they use female characters, and they need to stop killing them off for the sake of male characters.

In addition to the problems mentioned above, there is also the issue of Kara’s agency being robbed. She is repeatedly killed by Alt-Barry, and there is nothing she can do to stop it. This is a frustrating and demoralizing message to send to young girls who look up to Supergirl.

The Flash is a great show, but it has a major problem with its most shocking death. Kara Danvers/Supergirl deserved better than to be fridged.
