I always thought the “no man can kill me” not including women was a dumb loophole.
The Nazgul should have written his rule as “no gender identity can kill me.”
I don’t think the “No man can kill me” is some kind of magical immunity, more a brag.
Apparently it was a prophecy that he "would not fall to the hand of (a) man or something like that. But merry stabbing him is really what broke his magic protection severing his soul from the wraith realm or something like that
It does feel like weird wordplay in a context where ‘men’ is so consistently used to refer to humankind. Could a boy have killed it?
Split hairs aside, it’s an awesome moment for Eowyn.
