Buffy the Vampire Slayer and social issues Buffy the Vampire Slayer has dealt with a number of social issues, including gender expectations, homosexuality and class, and has received a great deal of attention from television critics for its unusual approaches in discussing them. As described in the main article, Buffy often, though not always, approaches contemporary issues through a veil of metaphor. Even when the writers have eschewed metaphor and dealt more directly with contemporary issues, the series has generally integrated its commentary with multi-episode plot arcs; the series creator, Joss Whedon, is on record as saying that "there will never be a Very Special Episode of Buffy" [http://www.slayage.tv/essays/slayage2/wilcox.htm].
