Yes, I always thought Storm was a little tone deaf in this scene. I think Beast even tells her in another scene: he says something like "it's easy for you, you don't shed blue fur on the furniture"
Yeah, something about that sentiment reminds me of when religious people will say "it's God's will" when people are suffering and dying, but then "it's against God's will" when a woman chooses not to go forward with a pregnancy for whatever reason. Extremely judgemental and entirely insensitive.

I feel like Storm's answer describes people whose disabilities might make life a little difficult, but mostly different and for them suggesting a cure might be offensive. I feel like Rogue's response describes people whose disability, whether visible or invisible, can make life miserable and would absolutely jump at the chance of a cure.
I get that X-Men started as a metaphor for civil rights, but I had to get that off my chest.
