First off...I'm not trying to start a political fight or arguing. Maybe a response will help me see it in a different way...But doesn't it hurt the women's revolution with Becky calling herself The Man. It makes it seem like women are not on the same level as men. Why can't she be called The Woman? But referring yourself as The Man when you are woman kinda submits to the fact that women could not be on the same level as the man...Seems like backwards thinking here.

It used to be that being "The Man" meant you were boss. It didn't mean you had a penis, it was simply a popular expression. "The Woman" isn't an expression. Nowadays things are taken literally when it's convenient, for the purposes of lawsuits, slow news cycles, causing social unrest, etc.
(But that said, I think the only time I've heard "the man" used nowadays is in sitcoms making fun of those expressions.)

boys call themselves girls, girls call themselves boys, people actually think there's more then 2 genders....Nothing makes sense any more. Just bring on the asteroid already.

"Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they're girls
Who do girls like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love."

Just means she's taking the reins as the top draw on the card in a male-dominated industry.
Please don't break this down into a gender-identification argument either y'all. Ain't worth the time or energy, and will only end up in a lock.

She's explained it herself pretty well. Here is a direct quote from Becky Lynch, taken from WWE Chronicle:
"I'm not talking about gender. I'm not saying I am A man. I am saying I am THE man. The Man has been used as the moniker to being the top dog in our business...so it's what's Ric Flair called himself, he said to be the Man, you gotta beat the Man. Well there's nobody else who was on top of the totem pole like I am right now. So therefore I am the Man. And being the Man is all about believing in yourself. It's about believing in yourself more than other people believe in you. The man in the male room can be the Man. The woman that's running a Fortune 500 company can be the Man. But in my business there's only one Man, and that's me."
So it's not about gender. It's about being the best.

Soooooo whats shes saying is only the best can be Men?  ?...that is what I mean by its a step backwards in thinking women are equal to men |

I'm wondering to what degree you take monikers in professional wrestling at literal face value.
Have we seen any physical proof of Shinsuke's artistic prowess? Wouldn't it be sufficient to just simply call him "The Sports Entertainer known as Shinsuke Nakamura"?
Could it be considered bad form for Jinder Mahal to self-claim the title of Mahārāja? I mean, that implies royalty and stature, which I question whether he truly possesses. Couldn't he just be "The Modern Day Nephew"? I think that would more appropriately speak to his proper lineage.
I mean, Roman isn't really a dog. Can't he just be "The Big Person"?

I'm amazed people can't wrap their heads around something so simple. It's not that hard to grasp.
