Goddamnit Keith! I haven't read the latest issue yet :bawling:
I bet Joss Whedon spent a lot of time in elementary school drawing pictures of naked people kissing.
This was the next logical step of Buffy's sexual fetish. Satsu will probably be the first person to understand she's not looking for a permanent relationship, unlike Spike who got the wrong message and raped her for it.
Seriously, a burdened leader, 500 girls and the only male is someone you consider your surrogate brother, who would you **** first?
It's a tired old cliche that in theory gays and lesbians have been struggling against for years.
"Buffy can't maintain a normal, healthy relationship with anything male so she turns lesbian".
-Buffy's cut off from Giles.
-Buffy's feeling all alone in the world (again).
-She's going to have another split with Willow.
-Xander and Dawn can't help her because they're powerless (however you want to define that term).
-Twilight's the most poweful big bad yet (even though it's probably Riley in disguise).
Etc...
I knew this was coming...
She's a straight person whose gone gay once. Being one, I know how often this actually happens. Loads of different medias gone through this thing once and a while. You're just picking at it for the sake of being picky. Although I do agree with you that calling it a logical step is just stupid.
You could do that for ANY show. Sentai has been doing the same thing for 32 years, but no one ever complains about it.
For a guy who hates everything Joss Whendon with a passion, you sure do like to keep up to date with everything he's made.
