What Makes Them Despicable

She's a misandrist who uses her own gender as an excuse to justify her crimes and turned temporarily the powerpuff girls themselves against the men and boys of Townsville.

Despite being a misandrist, she is shown to have no respect for other women, having stolen from a female bank owner, breaking a policewoman’s arm, and stealing a teenage girl’s hairstyle, proving that she's a hypocrite who isn't even firm on her beliefs.
Refusing to accept $100 bills in her bank heists just because they have the image of Ben Franklin (a man) printed on them, proving how much bigoted and petty she is.

"Love to hate" factors

She is seen as a great representation of feminism in general and how most female superheroes are written nowadays.
Grey DeLisle's voice acting.
Her design can be seen as cool and attractive.
Her pettiness and radical misandry are, to a degree, humorous.

	~ Femme Fatale's final words when she is defeated and imprisoned by the Powerpuff Girls

Femme Fatale is a very conniving supervillainess and a minor antagonist in Cartoon Network's The Powerpuff Girls. She appeared in "Equal Fights", which was also her debut episode and was the main antagonist of that episode. She also had a cameo appearance in the special Powerpuff Girls Rule!.

She was voiced by Grey DeLisle.

What Makes Her a Hate Sink?[]

She represents the misandry in villainesses.
She hates men for no reason, and she is even such a misandrist that she does not accept $100 bills (even though they are the highest denomination of the US$) from the Banks she robs because they have Ben Franklin (a man) on them, and she only steals Susan B. Anthony coins because she's the only woman on them, showing how ironic her name is.
She uses her own gender as an excuse to justify her crimes, and even claims that she is stealing in the name of all women, stating that women need to look out for each other, and that sending her to jail would harm all the women in the world, also with that she shows her cowardice.
She tricked the Powerpuff Girls into letting her go and is responsible for them temporarily acting hostile towards all the males in Townsville for small non-misogynistic indiscretions, including boys of their own age, their father Professor Utonium, and the Mayor of Townsville, until Miss Keane and Miss Bellum's intervention helps the girls see the error of their ways.
Although she does hate men, she seems to also show sheer disrespect to other women. Despite her lie to the girls as well as her ultra-female's lib costume, she stole Susan B. Anthony coins from a female bank manager, broke the arm of a policewoman, and copied the hairstyle of a teenage girl. She also showed no respect towards fellow female criminals, Morbucks and Sedusa, referring to them respectively as "that little brat" and "the chick in the underwear".
She's a total hypocrite and takes sadistic pleasure in attacking anyone who tries to stop her, regardless of their gender.
She also commonly targets other women and girls particularly because she herself views them as easier to rob, trick, and/or harass in any way of her choosing. This not only makes her a massive hypocrite, but also ironically more misogynistic than the men she claims “oppress” women.
In her second encounter with the Powerpuff Girls, with them now being remorseful for their actions, she congratulates the girls for what they did to the males and tells them to keep doing it.
When the Powerpuff Girls ask her who Susan B. Anthony was, she doesn't know anything about her, so the Girls tell her the story about who she really was, a suffragist who illegally voted at a time that women were forbidden from voting, and demanded to face the same punishment that a man would face when she was nearly given leniency, and thus, the Girls decided to treat Femme Fatale the way they previously treated male villains.
- Also, while the girls tell her about Susan B. Anthony, she cowardly tries to come up with an excuse, before running out of ideas and running away, showing how pathetic she is. It makes her defeat very satisfying to watch in the end.
She stands out as one of the most despised women and villains in the Powerpuff Girls universe for being a normal human being, fully knowing that what she's doing is wrong, but willing to choose wrong over right for the only reason for being a woman and that is why she can do as wrong as she wants, and her arrest isn't played for sympathy, since this is well deserved for her actions.
While she does have some comedic moments, like her own supervillain name, which is a term used to describe beautiful, but evil women (such as Poison Ivy), the moment when she was horrified when the Girls tell her Who Susan B. Anthony was and what Feminism really means, along when she's taken to jail and says that her prison uniform that the Horizontal stripes makes her look fat, none of these moments take away from the fact of how misandristic, cowardly, and hypocritical she is and she takes things quite seriously.
While she's not as vile and fails in heinous actions to Princess Morbucks, Sedusa, The Rowdyruff Boys, Mojo Jojo, HIM and Dick Hardly, she's still a misandrist fighting for herself, and would hurt anyone who got in her way, man or woman.
Like Dick Hardly, she has no redeeming qualities.

Trivia[]

She, Princess Morbucks and Sedusa are the only PPG hate sinks to be Female Supervillains.
- Ironically they are also Blonde, Red-haired, and Black-haired just like Bubbles, Blossom, and Buttercup who are Love Exalted.
- Also the 3 Female Villains have no redeeming qualities.
Some PPG Fans theorize how she became what she is now, many assuming that she was abused by a male figure that led her to become this Misandrist, but there is actually no proof of it and this is just speculation, And even if that was true and it had happened, in the end she wouldn't have cared what happened to her.
