#and of course will also confirming with her Sexy costume tm which is ultra feminine

Just rewatched Halloween, absolute gender episode. The main concept is literally just Buffy and Xander having paralleling gender crisises about not being a real woman/man and then getting transformed into their gender ideals. Gender performance the episode!!

#btvs #buffy the vampire slayer #buffy summers #xander harris #halloween #buffy #xander #also the fact that their costumes are supposed to be super gender conforming #but then soldier xan drinks big respect women juice and princess buff is clinging to cordelia #still managing not to conform under magic #and of course will also confirming with her Sexy costume tm which is ultra feminine #in my mind the gender sequel to this ep is Killed by Death #where xander and buffy accept their roles as the more feminine and more masculine ones #with xander protecting/watching the children while buffy fights the big bad alone #also giles is this ep makes me insane but thats beside the point #absolutly fascinated with how confident soldier xan is in his gender and sexuality #no flirting with any girls and encourages buffy to fight for herself #is inner xander just a feminist??? cause like. i dont know if most people assume soldiers are feminists #these queer people cant help queering up their straight cis costumes I love them #meta #i guess???? mostly in the tags whoops
