REPULSIVE!
I still can't believe that Batman had sex with a goddamn teenager. They demoralized the character on BvS, now this *beep* Where is the moral ground of this character?

Batman and Batgirl had a relationship in Batman The Animated series and Batman Beyond as well in the Batwoman movie. She wasn't a teenager but she was younger. While I don't care for the relationship it isn't the first time they introduced the idea.
I didn't care or Batman killing in BVS as he doesn't use guns. However when the comic first came out he did use guns and killed people. The comic code changed that and he had to stop using guns.
Well, it's just due to the fact that it just seemed so clumsily jammed in there, so to speak, but I suppose that's unavoidable in tights. The 'surprise Batsecks' just didn't seem to serve much in the way of the story, except as some bullsh!t reason for her to quit.
I give f*@k zero. It's like giving no f*@ks, only without the calories.share

Talk about people over reacting to this.
From the reaction of it, I thought it was a full blown sex scene, but it was nothing of the like.
Barbara's also allegedly violated by the Joker in this, but notice how you see no adverse reactions to that.
I think that part was much worse.

It's not about what was shown, its about the context of it. Here are the problems with Batman sleeping with Batgirl:
1. She's Commissioner Gordon's daughter, and Gordon is one of Batman's closest allies. With that it mind, are you really going to tell me that Batman sleeping with his friend's daughter behind his back isn't a sleazy thing to do?
2. Batman and Bathirl are supposed to have a student-teacher relationship. In most cultures, a teacher sleeping Edith their student is NOT acceptable behavior, even if the student in question is technically an adult.
3. Barbara Gordon has dated Dick Grayson in most continuities, and Dick Grayson is Bruce's adopted son. Are you telling me that there's nothing creepy about Batman sleeping with his adopted son's ex-girlfriend?
Besides, it's obvious that the only reason they even had that in the movie was because Bruce Timm is a massive fan of the pairing. It's basically a weird fetish for him. There is absolutely no other reason for the two of them to be romantically or sexually involved in any way, shape, or form.
