Why is it called "X-
men
if there's also women?
I bet if it was called "X-Women" there'd be a huge outrage by all the insecure right-wing men.
Do you think it should be called "X-people"?
I will be boycotting this franchise until they rename it to something not overtly sexist. -

The main villain was defeated by two women independently making choices, one of which (Jean) completely overpowered him. Storm flat out betrayed him. Mystique damn near got him with Psylocke's sword.

its like asking about the word manpower who is used by both women and men when it comes to work.
Stop with the patriarchal abuse!
That's a sexist phrase that implies that only men can work and provide for their family.
I wish I could fine you for your oppression! One day we'll be able to stop hate speech such as yours through hate speech laws! I can't wait.
