It makes sense to me!

But I'm also coming from beating my head against comic books again for a couple of years, and having to explain these things over and over, myself.

That's a perfect set of definitions, smonster.

So, she asks again, the vid is pointing out sexualized violence? If so, I'ma stop making the "who gets killed/menaced by what" list and make a "what clips I would take out because I don't think they fit" list.

(Probably just for my own edification, because I'm the odd one out here and I'm ok with that.)

Oh, comics. Talk about pleasure mixed with pain. I'm sort of glad I'm not deep into the DC. I'ma stick to Runaways and Buffy s8.

It completely makes sense to me. But I'm also coming from decades in the horror genre.

smonster, your list makes total sense to me.

I still need to watch that freakin' vid.

Austin, I grabbed your quote merely as representative.

I think you were right to use it. I was interchanging the terms incorrectly. I would agree with your definitions. I do think that that particular Darla/Angel scene was maybe violent sex in theory, but was sexualized violence in application. Showing a beautiful, young, human-looking woman being thrown through glass and enjoying it as foreplay (despite knowing she is a vampire and could handle it), strikes me as the latter. She was filmed in beautiful young woman mode, not vampire demon mode. I love the show, that scene just always bothered me.

And talking about the impala's bench seats takes me to a completely different place. One of good and right and true sex. It is the land of happy.

Well, I certainly didn't create the vid, and I've only watched it twice. So this is IMHO, cutting and pasting from upthread:

Here's a breakdown of tropes I see in the vid:

• Evil women, with or without a sexual component to their evilness (Woman in White, Crossroads demon, Meg)

I'd have to watch it again to see if I think sexual violence should be added to that list.

Glad the definitions seem clear to people who aren't in my head.

that particular Darla/Angel scene was maybe violent sex in theory, but was sexualized violence in application.

I think this is a good example of overlapping areas - sexualized violence and violent sex. I would still say not sexual violence, but even that could be debated. Excellent point that Darla was filmed in woman mode, not vampire mode. Now I want to rewatch that scene and pay attention to the camera angles and such.

Wow. I haven't posted this prolifically on Buffistas in YEARS. Wow.

eta - and I've killed the thread. FTW!

etaa - juliana, looking forward to hearing your reaction on the vid. i think you'll like it, for values of like that include "deeply disturbed."

You haven't killed the thread! I just decided Working At Home included popping in a DVD and watching Route 666.

RUN, MR ROBINSON!!! Run!!!

Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah, the sweet smell of cheese.

Oh, cranky Sam.

You know, she's wooden, but she's very pretty.
