Is Buffy a feminist? Talk amongst yourselves.

[dragonyphoenix]

Hey, there's a discussion on whether or not Buffy is a feminist. I know some of you can come up with more interesting responses than my feeble attempt. Come. Join in.

I'm very reluctant to join these discussions because even the most innocuous statement I make tends to end with me being rounded on by all and sundry. I do have some thinky thoughts but... No, I'm really not up to facing the inevitable: "How dare you! I can't believe you used an Oxford comma, you worthless piece of subhuman garbage!"

Wow, it's terrible that people react that way, but I can understand your reluctance. I wouldn't want to be treated that way either.

That really is a shame because I KNOW you would have some fascinating things to say! (And I'm sorry you've been treated badly. Unfortunately I've been there but I suspect everyone in fandom has, and I've hardly had it as bad as many other people.)

I hate to admit that I'm far more circumspect about conversations here than I'd ideally like to be. I don't have the energy (or ego-strength) to get into fights. Not worth it.
