i don't even get why x-lady is offensive. men and woman are different. equal, but different. feminist stretch for offensive terms.
I never said I found it offensive, I just think it's inaccurate.
yeah, men and women are different, but X-men are X-men regardless of their sex or gender.
I mean, if someone were doing the same sort of poll for, say, the Avengers, it would be weird to say "Who's your favorite Avengerette?", right? it would probably be "Who's your favorite female Avenger?" I don't see why the same thing shouldn't apply in this case.
Storm's team are all female at the moment and they still call themselves the X-men. That Kitty or Storm or any of these characters are female doesn't in itself make them any different than any other X-men, so why wouldn't we still call them X-men and simply qualify that?
