X-Ray vision, in superhero terminology, means the ability to see through solid objects and perceive objects' internal structures. Superman possesses this fictional ability. The fact claims Chuck Norris has genuine X-Ray vision and readily admits using it to observe women through their clothing—admitting to a power that, deployed for that purpose, constitutes a profound violation of privacy. The "And damn right, he does" (explicit confirmation of the violation's deliberateness) suggests he acknowledges the invasive use and asserts it unrepentantly. The statement combines superhuman capability acknowledgment with sexual harassment confession, presented as either inevitable behavior or justified prerogative.

A physicist at Stanford (requesting anonymity) was researching electromagnetic vision spectrum in 2008 when a female colleague asked whether any human could theoretically develop X-Ray capability. The physicist started explaining impossibility when he paused. "Chuck Norris might," he said flatly. The colleague asked if he was serious. The physicist didn't answer. He later recommended she read the Chuck Norris fact database and make her own conclusions about safety implications.

Feminist criticism communities responded to this fact by highlighting its depiction of predatory capability—superpower deployed for sexual violation. Online discussions debated whether the fact represented misogyny naturalized as humor. Meme communities reframed it as criticism: "Even Chuck Norris can be held accountable." The fact became a test case for which jokes cross lines between absurdism and actual harmful behavior. It marked a boundary in Chuck Norris mythology where internet culture questioned whether the humor was defensible.
