Someone once called me Superman and that’s who an online test said I was as well but, I'll admit, after thinking it over I don't really think that's who I am. If I were a Superhero, I'd have to say I was Spider-Man. I was trying to figure out which 3 Superheroes seem to be the most popular in mainstream society, and I came up with Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man.
Superman, although seemingly invincible except for Kryptonite, does always try to do the right thing but, alas, he's not human. Although I try to live my life in a morally superior way, every now and then I will make a mistake. They're rarely huge and have never been deal-breakers in relationships from what I can see, but they still have an element of humanity in them, not alien and inhuman like Superman is.
I then considered Batman. The modern-day Batman is nothing like the cutesy, do-gooder 1960s t.v. show version or 1970s cartoon version anymore. Although seemingly calm and collected because he doesn't say much and seems like nothing seems to bother him, he now beats the crap out of people without even flinching, which shows little compassion for doing the right thing and, in real life, that kind of person could easily snap due to all of that internal, repressed frustration and would be a serious danger to those around him. Not only that, but someone so cold and lifeless and distant probably wouldn't make a good relationship partner anyway, am I right? So, I'm definitely not Batman.
My last choice, of which I think I resemble more than any of the other superheroes, is Spider-Man. The things that Spider-man stands for are me in a nutshell. He's comical, lovable, always tries to do the right thing and DOES when it pertains to major moral choices but still falters from time to time with the little things, always tries to find a way to capture bad guys without having to use much violence, and has feelings, is emotional, and believes in the good things in life such as true love. So, I think out of all of the Superheroes I can think of, Spider-Man describes me best.
