* In most forms of media, especially before the mid 1990s or early 2000s, it is the male character who protects the female in distress, with the latter admiring the former. With this trope, it gets reversed.

It shows that there is ''nothing'' wrong in a man being attracted towards a woman for saving him

While this trope is usually a guy is attracted to a girl for her ActionGirl qualities, this can also apply in her personality. After all, being tough and strong comes in many forms -- Bravery, emotional resilience, indomitable spirit, strength of character, etc. If this were case, the man (or woman) in question might be a downplayed variant of the trope, but still applies.
