This is an apt essay for me to read, as I just kinda incited a ship war over at buffyquestions by comparing Buffy/Angel to Bella/Edward. I didn't have the time or the energy to go into why the relationship bothers me, so I just did a qucik shorthand tagline ("If I wanted to hear about Bella/Edward I'd go read the Twilight books" in response to the question of what people think of the Bangel relationship). I'm desperately trying not to highlight and quote you over there, because so much of what you say is what I would have written had I been wearing my big girl panties at the time.
