I Enjoy Being A Girl!

I don't usually post links to YouTube fan videos because of the access issues, but this clip of women from some of my favourite shows is too good to pass up. For the interested, they are: Alias, Battlestar Galactica, Buffy, Firefly and Veronica Mars.

I really only have two complaints: No Kaylee, and NO AERYN SUN. I mean, how could you do something like this without Aeryn?

No Kaylee????? Oh... btw... I always liked Xena best.

Yeah, I know. How could you do any reference to Firefly sans-Kaylee? Wah.

Um. I haven't actually seen any Xena... Must rectify that.

Please don't refrain from posting stuff you think is interesting on account of potential access issues. We all have individual needs and can assess whether we can access the material or not ourselves. thank you

Point noted. However this isn't about shielding people, it's about the general principle of promoting accessible things. If YouTube had audio description and captioning features available (not even necessarily *used*, but available) I'd feel better about doing so. I only ever post things from YouTube when they're Rilly Good as a result of that reluctance to support an inaccessible format.

... and now that I look, it seems as though they've added captioning options as a feature since I last checked. W00t. Nothing that seems to allow AD though.
