הי לכולם,
היום התעקשתי שלא לאפשר לציניות של חלק מחברותיי כלפי יום האישה לקלקל לי את מה שהיום הזה גורם לי להרגיש: קצת יותר חכמה, קצת יותר מצליחה, קצת יותר יפה, קצת יותר סקסית והרבה הרבה אישה. יום אישה שמח לכולן!
ולרגל יום האישה, הנה כמה ציטוטים נשיים, ולא כולם פמיניסטיים... :-)
Xander: Oh, you wanna date. I saw that half-smile, you little slut.
Buffy punches him on the arm, and none too lightly.
Xander: (smiles and chuckles) Ow. (winces and holds his arm)
Buffy: All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Buffy: Y'know, if you don't like the way I'm doing my job, why don't you find somebody else? Oh, that's right, there can only be one. As long as I'm alive, there is no one else. Well, there you go! I don't have to be the Slayer. I could be dead.
Giles: That wasn't terribly funny. You notice I don't laugh.
Buffy: Wouldn't be much of a change. Either way I'm bored, constricted, I never get to shop, and my hair and fingernails still continue to grow. So really, when you think about it, what's the diff?

Cordelia: Uh, you don't understand. I'm not mad! He totally flaked on me. On me! And I don't even care. God help me, I think it's cute! Oh... There they are! They're watching cartoons. That's so cu... That's not cute. That's annoying. I'm annoyed.
Willow: Right. I'm furious.
Cordelia: Men. I don't know why we put up with them.
Willow: I hear ya.

TEEN: How d'you do that?
Buffy: It's what I do.
TEEN: But... you're just a girl ...
Buffy: That's what I keep saying.

18th century Buffy: I was brought up a proper lady. I-I wasn't meant to understand things. I'm just meant to look pretty, and then someone nice will marry me. Possibly a Baron.

Angel: I hated the girls back then. Especially the noble women.
Buffy: You did?
Angel: They were just incredibly dull. Simpering morons, the lot of them. I always wished I could meet someone... exciting. Interesting.
Buffy: Really? Interesting how?
Angel: You know how.
Buffy: Still, I had a really hard day. You should probably tell me.
Angel: You're right. I should.
Buffy: Definitely.
(kissage)

Buffy: I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

Caleb: You whore.
Buffy: You know, you really should watch your language. If someone didn't know you, they might think you were a woman-hating prick.
וכמובן:
Buffy: What if you could have that power? now? In every generation one Slayer is born because a bunch of men who died thousands of years ago made up that rule. They were powerful men. (She points at Willow, who smiles nervously.) This woman is more powerful than all of them combined. So I say we change the rule. I say my power should be our power. Tomorrow, Willow will use the essence of the scythe to change our destiny. From now on, every girl in the world who might be a Slayer, will be a Slayer. Every girl who could have the power, will have the power. Can stand up, will stand up. Slayers? every one of us. Make your choice. Are you ready to be strong?
