You guys can bearly handle when a woman with powers falls for an average guy! Anytime a witch/superheroine/etc falls for a guy who is just a guy y'all complain that "he is holding her back" and that the story would be better had she fell for a another girl and/or someone who has powers as well, someone who can "handle her", most of a time a villain who abused her

Ever noticed how Gwen Stacy was a love of Spiderman's life but Peter Parker was just Ghostspider's best friend?

Ever noticed how there is bearly any female superhero x male civilian ships, how What If had to turn Steve into prototype Iron Man because a concept of Captain Britain just having a romance with a disable sweet boy who is just here to show moral support was apparently not an option?

Ever noticed how Ladybug x Adrian is the least romanticized part of a love square? How no one ever brings up Mavis and Jonathan whenever people talk about well written fictional couples? How they made every elf fall for Galadriel in Rings of Power while ignoring her canon husband who is best know for being her husband?

And you want to know why? Because you guys don't actually see those girls as characters, you see them as self inserts, a way to live your fantasy away from this boring life. If you had powers, you wouldn't "waste" yourself on a guy that brings nothing but moral support to the table when a handsome guy with powers I standing there and/or you are projecting your own experience with prejudices on character who is facing some form of discrimination because of their powers
