Charmed and Marketable Feminism

I love Charmed but on recent rewatches, even I had to admit the nostalgia couldn't prevent the growing discomfort in my stomach at its presentation of feminism and its lead characters.

Spoilers for all of Charmed 1998 - 2006.
No spoilers for other media shown or discussed, including Charmed 2018.
