While promoting Captain Marvel‘s home release, Marvel Studios EVP of Production Victoria Alonso told Nuke the Fridge that she thinks the X-Men name might need an update:

“I don’t know where the future is going. It’s funny that people call it the X-Men. There’s a lot of female superheroes in that X-Men group, so I think it’s outdated.”

What should the name be changed to? X-People? X-Humans?

Sabotaging her own company. Smooth move.

I’m sure that the Disney VP overseeing secondary sales for the Fox properties is overjoyed to hear this shite.

I see shite like this and I try not to get worked up over it. Stupid, yes. But there's no way Feige allows something as stupid as to change the X Men name.

X-hausted of shitty products that resort to pandering because they can't stand on their own.

When feminists and SJWs invade anything, they slowly destroy it over time because nothing will ever be enough even if you cave in again and again. They will ask more more more. And when things turn to sh&t, they move to the next thing. It’s their nature to invade and destroy because they can’t create anything of value on their own. I unapologetically despise them.

"Man" is defined not only as a male of the human species, but in reference to humankind in general (regardless of gender). An alternate definition is "an individual human".

This should be a non-issue but people don't have common sense.

Is there anything Feminists/SJW's don't ruin?

This kind of zhit is what happens when you give too much power to weak people.
