It seems like cherry picking because there are 5 named woman in the book and only 1 that has anything worthwile to it. So I picked the one that was pickable.
I would talk about Arwen, but she has even less substance.
Or if you think about the question of women as cherrypicking: nothing is going on in the book considering its length, and the issue of women considering all the social contexts in the book is really noticeable. Very different from the Hobbit, where it can be excused that there is no woman in the book, because yes, might not fit one (I don't see a need to shoehorn a token woman among the dwarves or whatever).
Although considering it's a fairy tale... Grimms' tales are chokefull of women, and some tale's main hero is a heroin.
