Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Willow & Tara are in BuddyTV’s Five Favorite TV Lesbians

Monday 21 January 2008, by Webmaster

1. Tara and Willow, Buffy the Vampire Slayer

While technically two people, the Tara/Willow relationship on Buffy the Vampire Slayer was beautiful, tragic and opened all our eyes as dear, sweet Willow (Alyson Hannigan) explored both her sexuality and her magical prowess with the beloved Tara (Amber Benson). An allegory for female empowerment, the love began in season 4 and matured so slowly that casual viewers may not have realized what was going on for quite some time. Never exploitative, Joss Whedon shepherded these two women through a slow and steady courtship as their love became more and more intimate.

Their first kiss was a virtual throwaway moment in the deeply moving episode “The Body,” and we all remember how Willow made Tara “complete” in “Once More, with Feeling.” Their love was cut short by a bullet, but we will always remember and love Tara and Willow, not just for being butt-kicking, super-hot lesbian witches, but because their relationship was as sentimental and sincere as any heterosexual relationship you might see anywhere else on TV.
