So what if a hero(ine)/protagonist or someone on the side of good has "bodyguard babes"? Do they still count as Bodyguard Babes?

The trope name sounds too neutral to be a villain-only trope, either way.

This is a highly dubious trope, as it seems many of the examples are just bodyguards/troops who happen to be comprised of females, and not only "the most elite."

Has anyone happened to come across what happened to the Libyan Bodyguard Babes during the recent troubles?
