Favorite super hero and why?

I used to like Batman because he was just an ordinary man without any super powers or mutations. All he had were his skills in combat and his common sense.

But now I figured that super heroes are overrated and sexist.

Sexist because the women have to have a "girl" or a "woman" after their super hero names. Wonder woman, Cat woman, Bat girl, Super girl, Hawk girl, and the list goes on. Why does a male superhero need to add "man" at the end of their names? Batman, Superman, Aquaman, etc.

...Maybe becoming a man is overrated. We live in a society that says to be considered a real man; one must be violent, macho, etc. Can't a man be loving, appreciative, loyal, monogamous? Must they be these animals that are cruel and unloving? In this day and age, who knows where to find a man like that..
