Sweet Jesus, leave OP alone.

She finds the nice stuff romantic and finds the creepy stuff creepy. It doesn't mean she's mentally disturbed or been in a bad relationship or never been in a relationship at all.

Jeez, I knew as soon as I saw this secret was about Twilight, there would be tons of people saying "You think that's cute you are totes a pyscho".

What's even worse is that this comment will be passed over so people can agree with the people calling OP stupid.

Hi OP

[sensualcoco.livejournal.com]

IA. Plus the OP did refer to it as escapist fantasy.

If they couldn't make that distinction there'd be something to worry about, and why I understand people don't really see these as good books for impressionable girls.

The OP said they were "not promoting abusive relationships" so it's entirely reasonable that people will disagree with that.

This (and this is coming from someone who could only handle Twilight with rifftrax.)

This jfc
I am not touching twilight with a ten-foot pole, but OP did acknowledge the creepy parts of it and that it's an escapist fantasy.
I'm also kind of surprised that the hatred is as rabid as the fangirling. Most people I know IRL either find the series mediocre and not worth their time or they like it, watch the movies but don't think much more of it. I'm just..baffled that Twilight gets reactions that extreme from both sides, haha

but OP did acknowledge the creepy parts of it

See, that's the thing, she really didn't. She said "I know that other people think there are issues with the books, and I totally think that abusive relationships are bad, teehee, but I don't see anything in these books that promotes abusive relationships." That's different.

[(Anonymous)]

See I wouldn't hate Twilight so much if it wasn't so popular. But it is. And that's a problem when a large portion of the fanbase doesn't realise it's escapist fantasy.
It's sending out the message that abusive relationships are okay to pre-teen girls, girls who will grow up to get controlling boyfriends and be isolated and abused and think that it's normal.
