Although, I probably have a bigger problem with there being female Spartans in the first place. And I can't blame that on the Japanese.

What I can blame on the Japanese is the sexist cultural lense that this thing was meant to be viewed through. Oh, the Spartan is a girl. That changes EVERYTHING for the douche-y ODST. He hearts her now. Lame.
You really are a berk arn't you.
There were female spartans before hand in the books.
