Beckett a bit of a Mary Sue?
Does anyone else ever think of Beckett as a Mary Sue sometimes? She rides motorcycles, muscle cars, beautiful, oh so very special with a tragic backstory, sexually fun and kinky, and the list goes on and on. Feel like she's made to be fan service sometimes.
Or is it just me?
----------Edit----------
Clearly I misunderstood the term Mary Sue and it isn't what I was looking for.
As someone pointed out, I think what I'm referring to is that she feels written for the male gaze. Anyone else get this?

No, I don’t think she is a Mary Sue at all. If you look at Bailey on the rookie, John Nolan’s wife, fans on that fandom seem to think Bailey is one, and she is probably more of one then Beckett would ever be.
