"Why do you like the X-Men so much?"
Because of him. Because someone can still hold fast to the light of God, even when some days that light doesn't seem to shine.
Because of them. Because I remember being on both sides of the aisle — the one who doesn't want to see it and the one who helps another accept it (erm... sans reading their mind. Jeez, Jean read the room...)
Because she taught me to love myself unapologetically.
Because people will try to change you.
Call you things. Demand you leave the country. Wetback. Throw your people in vans. Beaner. Spic. Kick you out of the house. Faggot. Dyke. Tranny bitch. Dismiss you as less than human. Retard. Mongrel.
Demand you change. You take their cures. You repent. You find Their God on Their Terms and heaven help you if you step out of line. Beat your ass. Put a collar on you. Send you to conversion therapy. Sic a Sentinel on your ass. Demand you leave the country. Rip your nation apart in one terrible day.
Why do I like the X-Men so much?
Oh, right, uhhhh — it's because Storm is just soooo hot and like, yknow. Superheroes are cool and shit.
Don't look into it too much. Not much to see anyways.
