I get what Cameron was trying to say but honestly it comes off as "look at me! Give me credit! I was doing this years before it was cool!". Him criticizing Wonder Woman for being sexy is kinda like saying Thor is too good looking and as such isn't a good character to boot.
Also in fairness, he didn't create the character of Ripley in Aliens. Sarah Connor is a valid one, but last time I checked it wasn't Linda Hamilton on the poster, it was Arnold Schwarzenneger that sold that movie. Female leads in horror movies (and Alien and Terminator are rooted in the 70s/80s slasher movie genre, just with sci-fi thrown in) weren't really that rare. Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween, the Freddy movies, etc. often had women as the lead.
