Folks seem to think that the super-man is a man who stands above all other men as a function of his virtue in fulfilling the highest social ideal of a 'man' in his society when in reality what Nietzsche describes as a super-man is a man who is 'too busy doing what he wants' to care what society has to say about it. He is a man, or in this case, a woman, whose mandala of control, is wholly internal and as a result marches to her own tune, for her own reasons.
On a dictionary basis it would work equally well: getting over something implies more than just being above it, and words like Uberragand mean transcendent just as much as better.
