And it is a fucking idiotic idea. Thor is a name, not a title. Had Thor died and had she claimed the hammer through some grandiose act, and had she then gone on to wield it as a mighty heroine under her own name, or some Asgardian heroine's name, the outcry would not have been so loud.
There is no need or purpose for a woman Thor. It is pissing on a heroic character who predates Christianity. It is twisting the heroic pattern: heroes die. Their names are then honored and remembered, not claimed by usurpers.
This, for once, really IS pandering to an entitled, arrogant crowd.
