John, I think Claremont has suggested that Mystique was born male but chooses to live life in a female body most of the time. What a nice can of worms that is.

No, Claremont clearly said she was born female. But this alternate version choose to live as a man most of her life.

The main universe version to which we are more used did that at least in the 30s (as seen in the "true friends" page posted earlier), and probably most of the early XXth century.

Ever notice that there are no gay people in Star Trek?

You might be focusing too much on Klingons and Vulcans. I hear that Hortas are a real blast at mixers; they just melt you.

Hmmm... trying to imagine Kirk remaining as strangely calm as Banner in a prison rape scene.

What, ten pages and no one is strenuously arguing that homosexuality is just plain wrong?

You guys are seriously making me think the human race might contain worthwhile people after all.  I thank you.

It's not homosexuality that wrong. It's blue eyes.
Those people should be locked up.

Hey, I take personal offense at that! I'm 2/4ths blue eyed myself! (Though not actually blue-eyed to look at, but rather Hazel Brown.)
