I could only dream of rocking that look she has going on. Although I am roughly twice her size, I would still not want to rely on a machete for anything more intensive than clearing a campsite. I do have one just like hers, for such an occasion. For more serious social purposes, though, I prefer a ranged attack.

In her case, the ensemble and melee weapon seem more about her own empowerment and signaling she isnt in the mood for any bullshit. It sucks that she feels like that shit is necessary. As a girldad who grew up in the Full House era, I sympathize and hope she can feel (and be) safe.

ranged attack

For walking, not fighting. Not everyone keeps to the paths. Noy everywhere has them.

that fit

Yeah. And it would be ruined in five minutes anywhere the machete was necessary.

Genuinely no clue.
