There are many strong female characters in the lg15 series. Due to the interpretive nature of feminism, there may be disagreement about whether or not a video communicates feminist values. Also, there might be disagreement about how the videos communicate those values.

I'm Going to the Party! - Bree disobeys her parents to chase her own interpretation of happiness.

My First Kiss - Bree questions gender roles and common dating scripts.

How My Parents Met - Bree's father is attracted to Bree's mother's strong personality and independent thinking.

I Listened To Daniel - Bree decides to tell her parents she wants to lose her religion.

Daniel’s A Liar - Bree defines the significance of a kiss that happened between her and Daniel.

The Human Ransom - Bree and Tachyon work together to rescue Daniel, a simple twist on typical thriller scripts.

Crazy Emo Chick - Sarah's confrontational way of introducing herself is a poke at gender roles.

Everybody Does It ;) - Sarah explains her playful and yet domineering attitude towards her relationship with Daniel.

Deep Throat - Daniel's informant turns out to be female, challenging typical gender roles of thriller fiction.

I Like Being Me - Emma's decides to take the serum, regardless of what Jonas says.

Join Me! - There is a significant amount of feminist symbolism in this video, including the hand gestures that Claire makes and the blooming flower halfway through the video.
