It is retold fairy tale, and not very well written at that. It is the standard hero's quest. The fact that episodes 7+ is a retelling of 4-6, but with a woman in as the hero isn't a big deal. Is it against standard gender roles? Sure. Does it matter? No.
I don't think gender should be a barrier to anyone wanting to be whatever they want. I don't like reified gender roles.
It started out as a space Western that has degenerated into a soap opera.
