Women in gaming

I know that they are "trying" to market games to everyone, but I still just see the same over sexualized females to target the males and normal guys for the females. I was naming female charicters from games that I have seen and/or played, and with the exception of Jill Valentine, Heather Mayson, and Samus Aran (agien these are the only ones coming to mind for me), they are all the same. Ether the love interest to the male hero, a bitch to everyone/the villain, one of the "bros," or just there to be looked at. I'm just wondring why it can't be the other way around for a game. Just have the main Heroin be like avrage looking and have the male love intrest be just there to look at.
