Take, for example, the Transformers cartoon series (and yes, this is going way back). The show focused mainly on Optimus Prime simply because he was the leader of the Autobots. I don't think that either series did it to be discriminatory. It's just that a leader has an important role and while the other characters are necessary to round out the team....ugh, I just lost my train of thought. Sorry, it has been a long month. Anyway, all characters are necessary to a storyline, but you can't have a team without a leader. Someone has to be in charge, and in doing so, a story will often center around that character.

So very true :9
