All I can say to them is, appropriately enough, "Bite me".  |
The point of Buffy was, according to Joss Whedon, that he had seen so many occasions in films and TV shows where a woman walks into a dark alley and is killed, so he thought it would be fun, interesting, and different for the (blonde) woman to be in a dark alley with a monster and kick its ass.
If you take that aspect away from Buffy, it loses its Buffy-ness.
