Why do people (including Kishi himself) think that Kishi doesn't do females well?

The only females that are written well are:

1. Konan
2. Tayuya
3. Mei
4. Anko
5. Pakura

You are overhyping every single female for no reason. More than half of them are garbage and some of them are only used for male love interests like Ino, Sakura and Hinata.

Bold: Those 3 are totally irrelevant to the story. They are essentially fodder! How are they well written? I mean really? Anko?!! All we know about her is that Orochimaru trained her, scarred her physically (with a curse mark) and mentally, she proctored the chuunin exams, and she got captured by Kabuto. What is so great about that?

I think Tsunade is a great character I really like how her and Naruto were introduced to each other and their relationship. Tsunade is a woman of a truly scared past and it shows in her personality, she is angry all the time due to her inner frustration. I think she represents what a strong woman should be like. Plus she was really hot when she was young, just saying.

Eh I don't like how a lot of the female characters seem helpless when compared to the male characters. Although I like more amazon goddess characters who could manhandle someone.

It's not about if they are irrelevant to the current story and most of the characters that were dead were pretty well written when they were alive. I guess most of the Akatsuki members are not relevant since they are not apart of the current story now. Lol
It's about how well they were used when they were alive. I am pretty sure that most people liked Tayuya when it came to the sound 4. Same with Kidomaru.

Edit: I forgot to mention Temari.

You assume that characters that are relevant right now( considering that your list is full of shit anyways) are well written when Hinata, Sakura, Tsunade, and Ino are irrelevant fodder right now. Hinata, Ino, and Tsunade are Zetsu.

Your excuse for Hinata was that she is kind. What a stupid reason that is. Hinata as always been a pairing fodder for Naruto Kuns penis and Sakura has always been an obsessive kunoichi for Sasuke's pawn.

Stop making excuses. Most females in Naruto are written garbage with the exception of the ones I mentioned.

I think the problem is that people always compare the female development to that of the males (as if this comparison is really relevant). In other words, Sakura's development for instance, should just be looked at as Sakura's development and not compared to Naruto's and Sasuke's or anyone else's.

What exactly was so good about Pakura's character then?

The same reason why Anko has a good character, She is tough, aggressive and Pakura also has a great ability.

If the author himself says he doesn't do certain characters well, he probably doesn't.

If I recall he only said he didn't like how Sakura turned out, not all girls

I am not just talking about current relevance. I am talking about over all relevance at any point. Tayuya for instance was just one battle and she wasn't even the main star of the sound four. She was just a pawn that Kishi could have easily put any sufficiently strong fodder in. Anko similarly had no real value to the story (besides being used to revive Orochimaru). Anybody could have proctored the chuunin exams. It is not that significant of a role.

Pakura?!!!! lol lol lol lol (I wish I had that picture of Sasuke laughing).

Do you seriously mean that scorch element edo tensei whose battle we did not even canonically see? What value to the story does she add? Just a zombie pawn.

At least the people that I mentioned in my list have done things like:

Act as antagonistic forces
Act as important political figures who had an effect on the formation of the shinobi alliance.
Is apart of Naruto's main friend group.
Etc...
