*licks you* *licks you some more* *licks your icon just so it doesn't feel dismissed* yummy :D
>>Repeat after James: "If a man is bad, he'll be bad to you." "You don't want to hear it, but it's true."<<
I've been pissed of ever since I've first heard that sentence... it seems to be one of JM favourite lines on cons cause I've heard it on several records and read it in several transcripts from many different conventions and I couldn't agree more with what you're saying about James idealizing women... I'm not extremly feminist (hell, I like it when a man buys me flowers and opens the door for me *snicker*) but that statement lets one think that women aren't smart enough to decide what's good for hthem and what's not... Î've seen a lot of discussions which started out from such quotes and in the end there was a lot of fighting and yelling and calling names and what not... I don't know if James really meant it the way you (and I) take it, it might have just slipped in the discussion or he might not have thought about it long enough or whatever, but since he's constantly repeating it I have to assume that he actually knows what he's saying... and everything I do, is disagreeing... which is my right (and yours ;) *licks you some more*
>>Hello! Yeah, it was an abusive relationship--in which BUFFY was the abuser! But oh, no, she's just a poor meek little woman! Nothing's ever her fault.)<< I'm tired of hearing how Spike treated buffy wrong and what he did to her and HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU STILL BE A FAN OF SPIKE AFTER 'SEEING RED'... I could go into a full ramble about spike's journey(sp?) and his redemption but I think your last paragraph covered it quite nicely, so I'll leabe it at that...
just because I'm intersted... why didn't you like chosen? :D
