Great Female Characters on the Screen: Cristina Yang from Grey's Anatomy. She's my person on the screen.

Cristina Yang, played by Sandra Oh, from Grey’s Anatomy is not only my favorite Grey girl, but one of my favorite female characters ever written. When I tell friends and family that she is my favorite Grey Girl, they tell me she is the meanest character on the show and I should never aspire to be her. I don’t think she’s mean at all. I think she’s misunderstood. I think her drive — her vision through her personal windshield, her single-minded determination to be the best surgeon of her generation — is a goal that should be treated with awe and respect instead of disdain. It’s a goal we should honor just as we would honor her if she wanted to have ten children. Her mentor in Minnesota understood her worth, and his words rang in her ears as she walked away from Minnesota after his death during one of their groundbreaking operations together.
