Vampire romances
I agree. Whenever Buffy "loved" Angel, I felt like yelling at her: "Hey! He's a vampire!" Of course the thing is, an astounding number of people put themselves in relationships that metaphorically are just that. So I guess that's what it's about.

Lol, well it's not like love and logic go along together in the first place. No one really plans who they're attracted to. I've never watched Buffy myself, but wouldn't that be part of the conflict? I find it hard to believe the show itself wouldn't comment on what you're saying.
I felt like yelling at her: "Hey! He's a vampire!"
So what? You prejudiced? Racist, maybe? You also distrust other alimentarily marginal persons, like vegetarians or homophagists (colloquially called "ogres")?
I bet you also consider that "the only vampire you can trust is a dead vampire".
(Tsk!) You humans. All the same. Your appalling attitude is just BLAH!

One of the characters did, vehemently, but he was basically jealous.
