Well... Yeah. I mean, there are some who do the heroing thing all the time, and they're really into it. How's she only getting people who don't much care?

So... superheroes, who don't do much of anything hero-like, are the better ones.

[What an alluring idea. It supports avoiding helping people, with the excuse that it's the lesser evil to do so.]

That's so true. Metro Man was supposed to be this great guy, but he couldn't even stop Megamind from kidnapping Roxanne practically every week! But the city was still building monuments and crap to him.

They have powers and girls go for that. There's nothing like flying together under the moonlight for romance.

Yeah, they do. That's how it works. Rescue the girl, and she's in love with you. Heroes are the guys who do the rescuing.

[Tighten considers this for a moment. There aren't any real girl heroes that he pays any attention to, but there's the occasional comic heroine.]

Then I guess they get the boy...? Pretty weak guy to need to be rescued by a girl though. Oh! Or maybe they're lesbians, and making out in public when they're rescued!
