Joss gets more and more problematic, like he spent all his feminist cred on Buffy (hello, Angel) and then basically just stopped thinking about anything past what floats his own boat, id-wise.
I'd probably feel less like cringing at everything he's done post-Buffy if he hadn't somehow, by quasi-empowering the tiny blonde, gained some kind of rep for HAVING cred that people take on faith (and argue loudly), even when his works are seriously problematic.
