There's no reason you don't do a Male Dr. Doom


Starbuck gender switch worked out pretty well despite lots of gnashing of teeth.

Not sure why it matters what gender Doom is as long as the character beats are there. It really doesn't make a difference in the origin story.

That is an exception, not a rule. And lots of people still didn't like her character.

Because Dr. Doom is one of Marvel's greatest villains. You want to change Riptide's gender? Fine. Arcade? Why not. Mr. Sinister (one of my favorite villains, totally underrated), it could actually work in more than a few weird ways.

But you don't change someone like Dr. Doom, Green Goblin, Red Skull, Magneto, etc. Just say no.
