The "Dead/Evil Lesbian Cliché" is a version of the basic
"dead/evil minority cliché" in which minority characters -
gay people in general, all people of color - are introduced
into a storyline in order to be killed or play the villain.
Hon är med i säsong 4,5,6 bara för att man vill döda henne? Låter som mycket arbete.
That all lesbians and, specifically lesbian couples, can
never find happiness and always meet tragic ends.
Hur många förhållande slutar lyckligt i Buffyverse? Påminn mig?

Det borde väl endast vara Willows och Kennedys...Willow's descent immediately follows the first material,
non-metaphorical sex scenes Willow and Tara have been
allowed.
OMWF någon?
spoiler resten av s06
Thank god Xander is there to talk Willow down with anecdotes
about yellow crayons, or where would we be? A man saves the
world from the crazy lesbian. What a horrible, painful and
insulting way for Willow and Tara's relationship to end.
Ja hur kan de slänga in hennes bästa kompis som personen som talar henne tillrätta.Personen hon kännt genom hela hennes uppväxt.All of the gay characters to ever grace Sunnydale - Larry,
Tara, Willow, Andrew - have ended up either
dead or evil. All of them. One hundred percent.

Kennedy? Ganska många av de andra har någon gång antingen
varit onda eller döda. Buffy, Anya, Spike, Angel.Not to mention that Willow's S6 vengeance storyline is merely
an extreme retread of Willow's actions in S5's "Tough Love,"
in which she attacked Glory for brain-sucking Tara.
Hon ville ju missbruka magi mot Oz också. Det har alltså
funnits länge inom henne och inte bara när hon var lesbisk.
Doesn't the attitude that lesbians shouldn't die make them
unfairly sacrosanct and not subject to the problems that
other characters face?
There are actually a fair number of reasons that this is a
specious argument. For one thing, what's wrong with keeping
them sacrosanct, anyway? We've had enough dead lesbians in
the past, is it too much to ask that a show which prides
itself on being ground-breaking and cliché-subverting
actually keep the lesbian couple alive for once?
Ja vi håller dem levande för att de är lesbiska sen håller vi
Giles levande för att han är engelsman.
