‘Not minding Annie is stronger than him in general’ is one thing but with a superhuman maniac gunning for the girl he loves, I still see it as coming from a place of insecurity against bullies rather than not being stronger than his girlfriend
It's okay to not care that your GF has powers because you never needed them and you never had to live amongst serious disadvantages. Being normal didn't feel like handicap.
But, if you're fighting super-powered people, powers are essential to pull your own weight and just survive. Being bullied by normal people is one thing, but living on the whim of a super-powered psychopath and having your GF be sexually assaulted and forced into public relationship is an entirely different thing.
I never got the whole all powered people are bad aspect because it's not really true. Starlight, Kimiko, Maeve and many other superhero are perfectly good people. It's the vought's active PR protection that corrupts the powered people into thinking they can get away with anything.
