Just came home from the cinema. Movie was decent, but there was one joke in the movie that just made me do a slightly confused "wait, huh?"



It's when Wade is talking about having children, and says something along the lines of "Oh I really want a boy... or a girl. As long as it's either of them".



This made me think "no, that can't be it, I must be misunderstanding it", since the first Deadpool - despite its source material and genre tropes - managed to be pretty progressive, elevating the subject at hand to something beyond just juvenile violence, humor and pop-culture references. Also since Ryan Reynolds seems to be a really swell and progressive dude.



Am I misinterpreting the joke or something?
