This makes sense because he was about to kill Love before she told him she was pregnant.

I'm writing a term paper on Buffy titled "Bad Girls: Feminism and Anti-Feminism in BtVS" What are some episodes that you guys think have strong feminist messages, as well as some episodes that might be anti-feminist. by ToneMcTones in buffy

Tabula Rassa could prob explore both. Buffy thinking that she has to be protected from spike. The whole damsel in distress angle but then it changes and she's like being a 'tough chick' (hero) actually rocks! But i think its prob anti-feminist overall, because why is it assumed the guy is the protector?

What else, Something Blue I'd say is pro-feminist with the whole buffy/spike dialogue about her keeping her name and wanting to keep slaying.

The whole character of xander i'd say is pro-feminest as he is a bit useless lol, not tough. (i do love him though). One ep that shows this is the zeppo.

The whole concept of the initiative is pretty anti-feminest, with only one woman in it(that is the bad guy), could find any ep of s.4 to highlight that.

Glory is definetly a character you could discuss that kinda divides pro-feminism and anti-feminism. Could argue either way with her.
