Can confirm many X-Men fans arent interested in sex with Rogue. I've been one in both senses since I was a young kid in the 80s.

What exactly are we agreeing or disagreeing with here? If it's that there are bigoted X-Men fans out there who somehow completely miss the point of X-Men I can definitely attest to that. I've met maaaaaany over the years who whine and bitch about female, POC, or LGBT X-Men.

Just yesterday I saw a poll post of which of the three most popular mutants (Wolvie, Magneto, Storm) is your favorite and a sadly not surprising of replies were whining Storm shouldnt even be on the list and that Storm fans dont actually like her, they only pretend to because she's black and female.

EDIT: Even while editing this comment I watched the votes bounce wildly from 5 and then down to 1 and then up/down several times.

You're right: how awful of me to have asked what the meme is trying to say or discussed the deeper thought of a post on a site intended for people to have discussions on.

My total bad.

You’re putting words in my mouth, my friend. I mean no hostility

-> you said people are downvoting you bc you’re a gay man trying to talk about it

-> I think people are downvoting the content of what you’ve written in the context of the meme, nothing more or less

Sorry if I came off aggressive, I typed my above message very fast! I hope you have a lovely day! :)
