[X-men] Why did Professor X choose a douche like cyclops to lead the X-men?
gpt
Anyone who enforces the rules is going to come off as a douche sometimes.  

In most incarnations, Cyclops only comes off bad because he's reining in the popular bad boy Wolverine.  But, Wolverine really is shit at being a team player, hits on Jean even though he knows Jean is already dating Scotty, and otherwise hurts the team by showboating around like the rules dont apply to him.

Apparently Cyclops goes through a bigger asshole phase in the comics where he's just legitimately a bad person, but that starts years after Professor X already chose him as the leader.
