Is it right to call a female actress as actor?
read it sometime ago that in order to avoid gender discrimination women who acts can be called as actors too?
If so would be right to say "she is my hero"
or should it be like "she is my heroine: instead which would mean something else

Nirmalrajah Is it right to call a female actress an actor? Yes; many or most of them prefer it. I cannot speak to their opinion of 'heroine': it is not as much used.
