The MCU, known to few as the ‘M-She-U,’ has broadened its horizons in recent years to give a platform and voice to female superheroes, specifically POC. Unfortunately, some middle-aged, misogynistic, and/or racist bad apples have spoiled the bunch, resulting in every opinionated white man being (undeservingly) labeled as a whiny incel. The argument against the M-She-U originated from a handful of neckbeards who are outraged to see Marvel retconning characters to be more inclusive of race, gender and sexuality. Essentially, a portion of the internet is mad because certain MCU characters are being genderbent and racebent to accommodate under-represented minorities. There’s particular chatter around Disney Plus’ She-Hulk series, whose main character — according to certain arguments — ‘replaced’ the male Hulk… even though She-Hulk is an entirely separate and established comic-book character.
Besides that, Marvel has been doubling down on producing female-led movies and shows, starting with Captain Marvel in 2019 and expanding to WandaVision, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Black Widow, She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel and many more. Gone are the days when the only female lead in any Marvel project was Krysten Ritter’s Jessica Jones. Apparently, that inclusivity for marginalized communities — be it female, POC, LGBTQ+ or otherwise — doesn’t sit well with the stereotypical assertive and dogmatic male. Now, this isn’t to say that every male Marvel fan behaves this way — there’s a vast majority that does not — but those numbers are started to exponentially grow as Marvel Studios continues pushing boundaries.
