Yeah but the point is that Shadowheart was fine as she was pretty much, and blaming this change on males who dislike women is dumb and wrong.
I mean maybe you would have a point with Laezel, but honestly you can just murder her at so many points in the game that I don't see why people would want her changed instead of just killing her like I did? Also the game does give you the option to kill off your companions either directly or indirectly so I see no reason for rewriting them.
