I'm really confused as to why we're focusing solely on Buffy being batty over relationships. Angel and Spike, pictured, spend most of their time mooning over a girl. Spike is hopeless about women, and Angel's EVERYTHING is literally defined by sex robbing him of a soul. I could write paragraphs on how thoroughly they are defined by their romantic relationships.

I don't understand this weird double standard. It's the same business with his cruelty to female characters. What shows are you watching that the men aren't equally as fucked? I don't think anything any woman has gone through on a single one of his shows can hold a candle to how fucked up Connor was. It's like.. all right. There's a whole episode of Angel about misogyny in human form-- in the end, it's women who come out on top, strong. And there's Wesley weeping behind a door because he tried to murder the woman he loved.

In my opinion, Whedon should cool it on the wanton torture of his characters. But for every Tara there's a Doyle [who was 'fridged' to further the character of Cordelia] and for every Fred there's a Wash [who was killed for.. what was that reason again? ah. show cancelled, gotcha]. What about Book? We didn't even get to see him die. Can you imagine if.. say... Jenny Calendar was murdered off screen? Distant neck-snap, body discovered later. As an aside, anyone remember how Jenny's death was such a blow to Giles that he marched off to war and was nearly tortured to death..

Of course there's a billion and one feminists who are going to try and explain why the women being killed is worse. Probably the same people who bitch about the misogyny on SPN, completely ignoring the gigantic male death count. Those same people can explain to me how Buffy's relationships are more of a focal point than Angel's relationships. Spike's. Xander's. Etc. Etc. Blah blah blah.
