What are you thoughts on scenes where the damsel/guy in distress free themselves. Personally, I'm indifferent to it. I like it because it makes the person seem more independent, however, other times, I like it when someone frees the damsel/guy in distress.
So, what are your thoughts on self rescuing?

This might sound sexist, but to me, rescuing builds relationships. I like to believe Heloise could untie herself whenever she wants, but waits to see if Jimmy will rescue her.

Re: Self-Rescuing
As long as it works within the established setting, the one in distress freeing themselves doesn't bother me. I do prefer seeing them get rescued, but that might be familiarity with how often it works like that.
