What if Jake had been a woman and Neytiri a man?

[Ashen Key]

Actually, I think it would have been more interesting if Jake was a woman (Jake short for Jacqueline?). Still keep the character as a former-Marine who falls in love with the warrior culture and all of that. Because, women can be warriors, too, and that would have been a really interesting aspect to the movie. White man going over to the 'natives' is really a well-worn trope, and not imaginative at all.

Or, you know, change Jake to being a woman and keep Neytiri as a female. Just saying.
