I am not talking about Moffatt specifically here, because I also don't have the energy or the enthusiasm do enough research to make a plausible case. But I think the issue when it comes to fictional representation is not so much about the choices each individual female character makes, as the overall pattern. If every single female character someone ever writes is smart and interesting and adventurous... and suddenly has an overwhelming urge to stay home and make babies and do housework, eventually I think it becomes plausible to ask whether there is some overarching theme here. In fact, I would say exactly the same thing if every single character they wrote were smart and interesting and adventurous and also absolutely despised babies and didn't want to get married. Not all women make the same choices, and if a particular fictional universe represents life as if they do, there is a problem no matter what the specific choice was.

Essentially I think I'm saying exactly the same thing you are; the problem lies in the representation of women as they ought to be - as a single main template with only minor deviations.
