Most of the fans do not see the relationship as unhealthy when it so clearly and horrifyingly is unhealthy.

Or, you know, they see it as an escapist fantasy - desirable in the fictional world where everything goes right, but not in real life.

Shockingly, many people - even young women - are in fact capable of telling the difference between reality and fantasy, and it gets my back up that there's all this pearl-clutching "won't someone think of the young girls!" business surrounding Twilight. We don't think that boys will be led astray into crime and violence based on their reading material (or we talk about it a lot less, in the case of video games); why are girls so ~delicate~ and ~impressionable~?

Well, here's hoping Twilight isn't the only book impressionable girls/women will ever compare their relationships to. God forbid we don't do our civic duty to make sure they don't up being brainless automatons.

I can't even tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

You're not in the vg fandoms are you? I hear/read all the freakin' time in the news, magazines, politicians, etc. about vg promoting violence among players. God forbid, they actually research the subject and find violence is down more among players than non-players.....or that vg have a teaching effect (improving reading, budgeting skills, etc.).

In the case of mainstream media, yes (I am in some vg fandoms, though not as much as I used to be), but in the case of fannish dialogue/fannish social justice, aaaaaall the attention goes to Twilight and how damaging it is to young girls. It's never the other way around.
