Yvette from Covet is basically a arpeggio machine. 

Personal preference, but women just don't seem to have the hand strength to really shred the guitar. I see her playing the notes and they sound ok and clear, but she just seems to be pecking at the frets.

There's a lot of female guitarists that can shred as its really just a style that can be achieved at a certain skill level; what you are describing can be attributed to tone which is really the preference of the musician as it manifests in the way they choose to play and any gear they may use. For instance Yvette describes are her plucking style as very light and delicate because she's obsessed with clean tone, the lighter she plucks the less potential feedback she gets from her amp, and she uses compressors and a lot of sustain to reduce noise. 

Allison Robertson, Nita Strauss, and Orianthi may have the tone your looking for as they play aggressive with a ton of overdrive and distortion.

IGOR by Tyler The Creator features Arpeggios in several points during the album but my favorite part is the Arpeggios at the end of I THINK

But the most Arpeggio heavy track on the album is-

Also, Hell Of A Life has some pretty sick Arpeggios over a beat sampling Black Sabbath-

Nita Strauss is hot  <3

I've been a fan for around a decade.

No doubt, these ladies do rock. Music is such a subjective subject, so no really right or wrong answer and it really just comes down to opinion and taste. I've actually kinda lost interest in guitar virtuoso music and have found much more pleasure in bands playing and complimenting each other as a group. BTW, the female guitarists I know use lighter strings, so physical attributes such as hand strength and hand size can force a change in your style. I'm not saying that's a bad thing.

 And then of course there's bands that compliment eachother AND have a virtuoso, like Dokken (Lynch), Van Halen, Deep Purple, Genesis, (basically every big prog band), and Ozzy's solo work (Randy Rhoades).

 For real, it's like Kanyes Graduation and Kid Cudis man on the moon came together and adopted extra synthesizers.
