Even though one of the other posters went into great detail about how Wonder Woman and Supergirl et. al would be able to defeat She-Ra thanks to their abilities to fly, I think She-Ra would be able to outwit them using her superior strategic skills.
Wonder Woman and Supergirl also have emotional and psychological insecurities that She-Ra is devoid of.
One often gets the sense that Wonder Woman and Supergirl are determined to prove that they can be as violent and "tough" as their male counterparts, whereas you NEVER get that sense with She-Ra, who is almost always self-possessed, cool, and calm. In other words, She-Ra doesn't have the same hang-ups and chips on her shoulder that most of the DC and Marvel heroines seem to have.
I also totally disagree that Supergirl is stronger than She-Ra. She-Ra isn't vulnerable to things like kryptonite. And He-Man is supposed to be "the most powerful man in the universe" - which makes him even more powerful than Superman, HA!! In like manner, She-Ra would be more powerful, physically AND mentally, than silly Supergirl.
Most SUPERHERO comic books lead readers, especially male readers, to believe that brawn overcomes everything - but that is not the case at all. That is why even villains like Catra were able to incapacitate She-Ra on occasion, when she relied on strategy over physical force. Heck, even in the DC universe, Batman has been able to more than hold his own against Superman - despite lacking ANY superhuman powers.
