Why was the tag for "Category:Fictional gays and lesbians" taken off? Zephyrprince 16:03, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
I'm thinking that Mystique may be the most well-known bisexual character in the Marvel Universe. There has not been a great negative reaction to this, due to the lesser stigma being attached to bisexual (especially female) characters than the few of those who are male homosexual, as shown notably by the popularity of lesbian pornography among young celibate men, composing the core audience of comic readers. can be trimmed down to remove the theorizing.

The Destiny article states that it has been confirmed that she and Mystique are NOT lovers, yet this article says that they were in a "relationship", within the context of her bisexuality. The implication there is misleading, unless the information cited in the Destiny article is false. I'm going to fix it. If I'm wrong, feel free to change it back. Godheval 14:15, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
The anon-user 69.183.73.241 removed all the references to Mystique and Destiny's romantic relationship; I've restored them. -- DrBat 01:00, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
There's no cite for the interview with Claremont saying he originally intended Mystique to be LGBT in an interview. The cite provided is an LGBT cite that states that Claremont said he intended Mystique to be LGBT but doesn not cite the interview. Hearsay. I can't find the interview and from what I'm aware Mystique was created by Cockrum, not Claremont. Please find the interview or adjust accordingly Guinness4life ( talk) 04:20, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Somebody at the IP address 200.17.83.50 took off the Category:Fictional bisexuals and Category:LGBT supervillains bottom links. I have restored them and left a message on their talk page asking them not to remove relevant links. I took a look at their history and apparently they are doing this to several gay/lesbian characters on other pages. Circleof05ths ( talk) 03:07, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
While I don't doubt that she could be anything she wants, or that Irene Adler (Destiny) was her lover; "X-Men Forever" probably shouldn't be quoted as evidence simply because it's explicitly an alternate continuity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2404:4404:141E:1700:A44B:1585:71F0:AB42 ( talk) 07:54, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
Is she really ageless, as listed in her abilities? I know that she's aged incredibly well, but this could be chalked down to her ability to shape shift. I'm unsure if she's got herself an eternal life span. Anyone have any sources that indicate her being ageless? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.150.194.195 ( talk) 21:50, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
Is the main picture really appropriate for the site? I mean she's got a gun jammed in between her boobs... what if a child say that, maybe we can have a better picture not so... edgy. It does some pretty close up to it seems to be a mugshot how about a full body (more appropriate)image. 74.108.143.82 ( talk) 23:37, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi All. I did an extensive re-write of the article. So much so that Wikipedia's auto-vandalism feature warned me when I saved the page.
Anyway, I have tried to make it more encyclopedic, but I know the article has a long way to go. I tried to cut the most blatantly non-notable or non-encyclopedic content. I am by no means an expert on Mystique so I cannot really deal with the fictional character biography section without making it more of a mess than it already is. The same goes for "other versions."
If someone with a more thorough knowledge could clean up these sections, the article is well on its way to becoming respectable. ZedZed77 ( talk) 12:29, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
