There is no denying that the Bear is what you might call a girly girl (even though the term is thoroughly problematic). But I do not consider it a bad thing, and she is a whole lot more besides. 

I often remember the advice my friend's sister gave me, when I mentioned that the Bear is very girly (and me very much a tomboy). She told me to just let her be herself. She is from a farming background, and it seemed there were efforts to stamp out her girliness, which were not well received. 

I think letting people be themselves is (for the most part) pretty sound advice.
