This is the same problem that I had with Anita Sarkeesian's critique of video games. Both cherry pick and turn a blind eye to anything that contradicts their pov. They might still have a point, but the most simple conclusion is that they are largely ignorant of the body of works that they are criticizing.
Focusing on this one, Octavia Butler, Kate Elliott, Elizabeth Moon, and Jack McDevitt to name a few off of the top of my head all have strong female characters.
