trust no one who idealizes steve rogers or clark kent as an alpha male jerkwad 

steve rogers is a sweet humble art student and clark kent is a gentle farm boy and both of them stumbled into superpowers to help people & be part of something bigger than themselves

and both of them get pushed aside into “oversimpified macho jock leader guy” role so that whiny nerd boy writers can make their respective Cynical Rich Genius counterpart the Cool Complex Character, no thx
