"I don’t know that the people who feel this way are being sexist necessarily. They’re just more sympathetic to the mutant position, and so see Wanda in a different way than other people." And yet, had Wanda been the one killing Xavier when possessed by the Phoenix, I'm 100% sure the same people that forgive Cyke would be calling her the worst names, like they did when she did all that when suffering from a mental disorder. And why?Because he's a guy, guys can be forgiven, while girls are bitches

Maybe. Or it could simply be that Cyclops is more popular with more readers than Wanda is–or that her crimes impacted on characters those readers care about, whereas Cyclops’ didn’t. I don’t believe this situation is as straightforward as you indicate.
