Ok - one more thing that I forgot to mention in my earlier post. I think that the whole discovery of Buffy being placed into an institution for 3 weeks when her parents first found out she was a slayer could add to the whole slayer = gay metaphor theory. Let me explain. Though its not necessarily as common now adays when a teen confesses to their parents that they are gay...it still occurs that the parents first reaction is to send the kid off to a psychiatrist.

I'm not trying to sell anything short...but from my experiences working with the "Outyouth" organization (a club for gay teens), that does occur.
