While I know that there's some overlap between the two terms, a lot of what gets discussed as misogyny strikes me as more correctly described as chauvinism. Despite "Billy," I don't think there was much misogyny on Angel, but the show and character were often guilty of chauvinism.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I rewatched the episode again today (3rd time lucky) and it is indeed Skyman, not Simon.
I kinda get a Darla/Angel vibe from Web/Becky (but not really in a sexual way. Although that would be funny).

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I shouldn't even attempt that with dialup, should I?

It's over 400 megs, so I say...no.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's of course possible that if someone already had your address a copy could turn up in the mail.
I mean, if that were even vaguely ethical.
