When that episode of Buffy was filmed, the age of consent in California was 17. It was only raised to 18 in 2001.

Let me put it this way: Should your heart stop, and you are medically dead for 10 minutes, during that 10 minutes
But Angel's heart is still pretty much... stopped.

Not to represent the Undead here in legal court, but I'm sure that vampires and zombies of the like in legal standing due to their capabilites of motion and... according to the Buffyverse, "sexual capabilities"... would not be considered "dead" and thus individuals who fornicate with such beings would not be guilty of necrophilia, regardless of their techincal medical standing.
Why are we still talking about this anyway!?!
LOTV: Ima-who-whata-whoichy-whoda-whazza--huh?
I don't think, pardon me, that being able to move and screw things qualifies you enough to be living. The body and host is dead. The demon isn't even a materialized creature. At best, one could call it an infection or parasite (just terming it for categorization as fictional as they are). The body is most definintely dead.

Yes, but I believe the point is that this obviously is NOT something that could be legally tried(he's a vampire!), so using legal definitions is quite stupid.

Angel is only technically dead, he meets most of the biological requirements set out to determine a living organism. He walks, he talks, he screws 17 year olds, for all intense and purposes Angel is alive, his heart merely doesnt beat because thats not part of vampire physiology, it's like saying a plant isnt a living because it doesnt have a heart. Okay that was a crappy comparison but you get my point.

That's not normal: normal is coming home to find your mother nailed to a cross
screaming verses from the book of Mormon, your dad performing a dark ritual
with your brother as the sacrifice, and your sister getting railed by a goat.

"Angel Raped Buffy, Spike Only Tried"
That is such a repulsive sentence...
So, in your eyes the scene in "Seeing Red" where Spike tries to force himself on Buffy, trying to tear of her robe, when all the while she is screaming at him and clearly showing that she does not want this, isn´t really that bad? That the scene where Angel and Buffy are making love in "Surprise" is worse than that? And just to be clear, in that scene Angel actually says "Buffy, maybe we shouldn´t..." He is not the instegator, she is.
I find that sentence as bad as any lawyers out there trying to get their clients free from all charges when they, in fact, know that they are guilty. Saying that they´re "only doing their job"
That makes them as despiccable as the crime itself.
I consider rape one of the lowest acts you can commit on another human being and to see a remark like that makes me so angry. Have you seen the episodes in question? I wish you would really sit down and watch that bathroom-scene again. Watch Buffy´s genuine fear and then you tell me what rape is.

I agree this is stupid... Its not rape she was willing and so was he! Its not rape unless one person says NO!! And i don't think it matters with the age, since uh ANGEL IS DEAD! I think buffy was mature enough to make that decision since she deals with life and death matters every day! Even though she knew after she made a mistake, still do you remember who you lost your virginity to? I bet you, you regret it too. Everyone does! Spike did actually try raping her! She said no... I don't think Buffy at that time really cared about how old he was since she believed that she loved him. If you really believe you love someone, and it all comes down to a choice, then its just your choice. you may regret it, maybe you wont you never know! You have to remember fate only takes you so far, but once your there its up to you to make it happen. Buffy loved Angel she probably still does! And people lets not forget IT'S A TV SHOW! A tv show that basically just had there last season. Don't get me wrong I love that show, but i really believe that it wasn't rape, because both male and female were willing to do it. And come on do you think she was really thinking about the Age when she saw Angel without his shirt on? Ok we all should know Angel is really hot! Hello people!!!!!! LOL
