And when I question the "we" you reference, I do so in the full knowledge that I and many of my peers both on and offline, have always revered the Black women in our lives long before it became faux fashionable to do so.
Comic book Shuri was never portrayed as a genius level intellect on par with her brother even though she was a Physicist in her own right so there were ZERO reason for Coogler to have stopped T'Challa of one of his primary character traits and splice same onto his sister in the movie.
The question I clearly posed in my original post was why T'Challa is the only MU character to have lost this particular genius level distinction in his MCU translation, when this has not been the case where the likes of Stark, Banner and even Hank Pym as portrayed within the MCU is concerned.
It's a posed question that still remains unanswered by anyone currently posting in this thread which in itself, is quite revealing.
I remain nonplussed as to what point you're attempting to make in relation to T'Challa's interpersonal relationships with the women that have been featured in the BP mythos long before Coates arrived in the scene with his Rape Camps, misogynistic mischaracterising of Wakandan society and overarching Boko Haram type denigration of the BP mythos?
And I say this for the simple fact, that women were always integral to the BP mythos and portrayed as equal to their male counterparts right from day one in tales, storylines and depictions where known one was thrown under the proverbial bus on some wholly manufactured gender imbalance/conflict that was non-existent prior to Coates ongoing derailment of the BP mythos.
Most posters familiar with me in this thread no that there is no greater appreciator of Shuri in here than me but here's the thing, I appreciated Shuri for who she was as written by Hudlin, Maberry, (initially) Liss and Hickman when she was clearly portrayed as being fiercely loyal to Wakanda in an uncompromising manner that wasn't even embodied by her own brother post Hudlin.
T'Challa's masculinity is not in question here as regards his general portrayal in the MU/MCU, it's his depiction as a completely lacklustre background character in his current solo book that remains irksome.
And as regards the portrayal of the eponymous King in the BP movie when compared to his initial introduction to the MCU via Captain America: Civil War, I'm going to boldly state that apart from the beginning of the BP movie wherein I personally felt T'Challa was portrayed very well, the rest was pure milquetoast moreso for the fact, that I found every other supporting cast member than the main character, a lot more compelling and relevant to the overall movie.
I've never felt that way about any other comicbook character portrayed in movies other than Blade when he was put all back of the bus behind Ryan Reynolds character and the Nightstalkers in the Blade:Trinity movie.
