"Batgirl" is not PC. Hello. In Batman & Robin (1997), there is a scene where Batman (his real name is Bruce Wayne) and Robin meet Batgirl for the first time. So they don't know who she is, yet. Batman: And you are? Batgirl: Batgirl. Batman: That's not awfully P.C. What about Batperson or Batwoman? Batgirl: Bruce, it's me, Barbara. I found the batcave. I know that PC stands for "Politically Correct" and I understand that it's a bit of a joke. What I don't understand, however, is that why Batgirl is not considered to be politically correct. Could you explain it to me, please? Thank you.
