Title: Why does Marvel want to change the sex of male characters?
Post by: becoming_myself on July 26, 2008, 02:01AM
Well I had to put a funny title...jejejeje
It was very funny when I found that Loki resurrected as a woman

But recently I found something more strange(and funny). Mr. Sinister supposedly died when he touched Rogue but later it was revealed that his essence was in a lab(I know this sounds crazy) and he tried to possess Professor Xavier but he failed. This comic ends revealing that the actual host is a woman, so heres comes "MISS SINISTER"

This is the topic jejejeje and I hope that people find it funny

Loki is the god of mischief. And he can shapeshift.

I know but after he came back from Ragnarok he became "she", that's where is the fun, because Thor thought that the woman was Lady Sif and when she said brother he got shocked

I think it all comes about when the writers have suppressed sexual urges, this was how Emma Frost and Lady Mastermind (among others) were created. There are also common themes between female characters, especially villains. These include tight costumes, big breasts and lots of skin.

I know that, but what a weird idea from Marvel. I mean, who think out these ideas?? By the way, I don't know, that who is happy about Loki's and Mister Sinister's sex change, think about it, if every characters sex changes, that would be disgusting. (A female Juggernaut, YUCK!)

Why would it be disgusting?  Personally i think it gives a twist to old and boring characters, seriously Sinister was predictable.  And a female Juggernaut doesn't sound too bad to me :).

Actually it's Ultron not Ms. Ultron. You mean Ultron version female like this, right.

I'm sure that is the only female Ultron.

Oh, and this is off-topic, but I don't understand why people say "jejejeje".

In Spanish, I believe that the letter J is pronounced like the English letter H, such as with jalapeƱo peppers sounding like "halapeno".

I also believe that the Japanese use "kekeke" or "fufufu" for onomatopoeic laughter.

nodoubt_jr, think a little, a 3 meter tall, ultra mega strong female, that would be "funny". A Big Joke! But, this could be in a What If comic, with the title: "Change of sex", but in normal, that would be scarry for me (BTW, all scarry and disgusting character is male (almost) and that would be more scarrier in female (female Beast, female Thing, female Ghost Rider, etc.))

There already is a female thing in the comics! I don't remember what's the name of the character!

Her name is Sharo Ventura at this time her codinane is She-thing. She is one of the alternate skins of Ms.Marvel.

Her uniform when she had the same power of Ms. Marvel

She as she-thing.

So women aren't allowed to be strong?

Next you'll be saying that their only use is in the kitchen.

Hey, I didn't said that! I just said, that changing sex of some characters would be weird. BTW, She-Hulk is one of my favourites! (She-Thing?? That's really weird. But a female Iceman (Icewoman or She-Ice or something, I don't know) would be nice:D
Title: Re: Why does Marvel want to change the sex of male characters?
Post by: LX - Rampage on November 07, 2008, 07:10AM
And besides, a female Juggernaut wouldn't be too good, because he is too powerful now, and with a female one, that would be unfair.

Post by: LX - Rampage on November 07, 2008, 07:15AM
And I think, that if there's a character, and Marvel decides, to create it again, with sex changed, well, that's kinda booring. It's OK, to create strong female characters, but please, don't copy another one, create a new!

How about the new female black panther?  Marvel & DC are both seriously lacking male characters because in the 60's getting girls to read comics was simply not a possibility.  Now there is a demand for more female characters but unfortunately the big two's most successful character's are leftovers from the old male-ocracy.  So, the big two convert major characters to females for a few months or years without success before bring them back their male counterparts.

What's really interesting is the X corner of the marvel universe has been seriously kicking butt in the female department since the 70's.  In my opinion first strong female to be successful (in Marvel) was Storm.

Apparently there is something up with Loki's transgender-fication.  I read an interview with Jeff Loeb that suggests that Loki's being a female has to do with the last Norse God's absenteeism.  I think its Frig or Freya or whatever the name of Thor's God Wench is.  They showed that Loki was keeping her in a Coma to keep her from returning to Asgard.  I'm pretty sure Loki hijacked her divine form for some sinister reason. 

I'll say this though.  Loki is rocking some serious juggs.

Kek originates from World of Warcraft, it makes the language of the enemy faction non-understandable, so if you play as a human and hear an orc say "lol", it reads as "kek". Hence "kekekekek" ain't nothing but "lolololol" which in turn is a sign that the whoever said it is a retard. Like all lollers.

I've seen "kekeke" in Japanese games long before WoW came around.
