The Spectacle of Sexuality and the body in BtVS

The place for kittens to discuss GLBT (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered) issues as well as topics that don't fit in the other forums. (Some topics are off-topic in every forum on the board. Please read the FAQs.)

The Spectacle of Sexuality and the body in BtVS

Postby EndlessDestiny » Tue Mar 18, 2008 6:25 am

I'm working on a paper for a class and I decided to focus on Buffy for the topic, which is sexuality and body. We are allowed to reference and quote forum posts so I decided to start a thread here and get some opinions. Thanks.
For all those words of tongue and pen, the saddest are those: "It might have been."

Tara ended up next to Oz in the elevator. He looked at her, nodding to himself.
"What?" She asked.
"You look good. Kinda radiant."
Tara nodded. "I was resurrected a few days ago."
Oz arched an eyebrow. "That'll do it."

Buffy had a nice ass.

she also had crazy hairy arms.

ETA: issue #12 of the comic should give you some interesting material on buffy's sexuality (who knew it was so bendy???).

This is interesting, but I'm not sure what you're looking for. Is your paper about Buffy's sexuality and body, or is it how the show itself dealt with those issues?

I'd love to help, but I'm a little unclear as to what you need.

Sounds like something Xander might have said to Anya in the bedroom (or basement)early on in the relationship

The Show, not Buffy herself.

you might want to try initiating and moderating a conversation on the specific subject, dude. you can't expect everyone else to do your work for you.

I didn't want people to do the work for me, but for the paper we are able to use opinions from forums.

I don't mean to sound obtuse, but opinions about what? Sexuality and body are two really broad subjects.

I hope you can tell that I really want to help you, but a question would be a great idea.

This is pretty off-topic here. I'll leave it open for now, but let's tread lightly and keep the FAQ in mind.

EndlessDestiny, why don't you post your questions IF they won't make the Kitten FAQ :happy

And then anyone who wishes to respond should PM EndlessDestiny rather than posting.

We aren't going to be discussing BtVS here.

EndlessDestiny, I agree with jay/wt4evr. You can probably get a lot of good responses by reading what folks posted years ago. (Hint: check out the old board, especially the Old Kitten Archives.)
