Buffy the Vampire Slayer a cult movie turned television series smash hit. The young heroine Buffy imbued with powers to slay the dead but still having to deal with everyday teenage issues. The outcast of high school and the champion of Sunnydale. This TV series is in my opinion responsible for the inspiration of female empowerment in our generation. A role model who is flawed, fragile yet has super strength and a calling from a higher power. Her snappy wit and disastrous romances mixed with social issues like losing your virginity and dealing with divorce and loss, made this inhumanly poweful girl easy to relate to in a very human way. There is one line that stays with me from this series, "Life is fighting everyday". I myself was a Buffy addict and drooled happily over Angel but it is the message of female independence and strength that I am lucky to have been exposed to. The final episode of the show emphasised the impact that this show has had on its female watchers. We are all capable of strength and survival and fighting everyday.
