Rogue, because she just wanted to touch people without them dying and the other X-Men treated her like a traitor. Yeah she can bring dead things back to life, but never being able to be physical with your loved ones ever without killing them? Yeah I’d cure that shit too.
Edit: I get the metaphor to marginalised groups, like the LGBTQ+, and that the cure is a metaphor for like, conversion therapy. But also, they have supernatural powers and hers is sucking powers and life force out of people. She cannot be cool like Storm and control the weather, and she cannot read minds (unless she takes those powers). So, in my mind, the metaphor falls apart when it comes to Rogue. Gay people don’t kill others by virtue of their gayness; she can. That’s the difference and I hate how the other X-Men reacted to her. Storm is all like “noooo you’re perfect”, but she can hug her loved ones, Soo there.
Storm because Halle Berry.

This is a well reasoned argument.
