Hi People,
Have you seen the X-Men movie? I have seen and was good, but I was wondering why they call the (X-Men) movie, as you can see women in the team. And why they didn't call X-Team or X-..... (any guess) Waiting for your view =?Utf-8?B?T1RITUFO?= |

there is "men" in women, thus x-men

And why they didn't call X-Team or X-..... (any guess) > > Waiting for your view Obviously it's because Xavier was a man. And if you pluralize it (there were lots of characters in the comic books and movies), you get "men." But you're focusing too much on the "Men" portion. Focus on the "X". Firstly, because it's a cool letter. But more importantly, because both men and women have an X chromosome. It's all inclusive. HTH. HAND. -- KB MCNGP #26 Long live The Ben! Briscobar |
