And the FBI does hire mutants but they don't get positions of authority and they're always treated with suspicion. And Hotch is sure that his career will suffer if either his brother or his son come out as mutants and he's worried that he's a bad brother/father for not wanting that to happen, not wanting to stop searching for serial killers and instead devoting his career to forcing the FBI to change its policy.
And some of the mutants use their power for good, like the ice mutant and the fire mutant. But some of them do something else, like the one with sonic powers who's a chef because she just likes to cook, or the one that has scales and must have a water-related mutation but is perfectly happy as a corn farmer. And neither Charles nor Erik are quite sure what to do about that, much like the women's movement weren't and aren't quite sure what to do about the women who are thankful for having a choice and choose to be homemakers.
And as people start to wonder about Methos, he strengthens his drawl and takes up chewing tobacco and calls Emily Prentiss "little lady", but he can't quite bear to ignore or shut down Spencer.
