Further up the thread two different people decided that the only reason I would try to justify Buffy's actions would be if I were a Bangel shipper. They were joking, just as I was joking here (hence the winking smiley). I know there are arguments for why Buffy shouldn't have been so quick to trust Angel, and I've been trying here to provide counter-arguments for why it was in character for her anyway.
But there's also lots of people who mostly just snark at the notion that Buffy would have sex with Angel at all, and this was counter-snakrk aimed at that idea. It wasn't directed at you and if you were offended by it, I apologise. If you weren't offended but just think I'm totally wrong, well then, fair enough. :-)
I said "mostly" because to be honest, I don't often see people making arguments; just dismissive comments and snark. There are exceptions - you're one of them - but my comment wasn't about them. Which is why I added the qualifier "mostly" in the first place.
And I don't think my comment was any more dismissive than Maggie's joke that the only reason I would defend Buffy's action was because I was a Bangel shipper

It happens sometimes. :-)
