Or you are 8. 8 year olds can believe and think the silliest things. Funny story, when Ninja Turtles were all the rage, I was asked who I would like to be by the other students and I said April

My teachers called my parents worried about my mental health because I am a boy. I told them I liked April best because she had a camera and I would like being a reporter, and that another hero of mine was also a reporter (Superman) plus I liked she was friends with the turtles, which told me she did not judge people by appearances

When you are a little kid you do not look at the world the same way.

I later learned in the original comics she was a computer programmer not a reporter. I was obsessed with computers as a kid..so that would absolutely made her my favorite.
