In my opinion, Frankie is far more appealing to me than most fictional female characters I've seen, in animation AND live-action. Her attractiveness is something that is very genuine and wholesome while still being downright foxy, instead of being a cynical attempt at pandering to the lowest common denominator.
And Frankie is vulnerable. Even though she's one of the show's most level-headed characters and can be the "beacon of reason" when needed, she is also fallible and, as we now know, very prone to getting "the short end of the stick", even when it's completely uncalled for. Believe it or not, I find that refreshing. I HATE it when females are portrayed by the mass media as being completely infallible and goddess-like, and I LIKE that she doesn't get special treatment by the writers just because of her gender... even though it's a character I love and care about.
