One can only discard harmful ideas if one has the foundation that tells them they are harmful (or false). Explaining the problems of Twilight does not necessarily presume anyone or everyone is too stupid to have noticed them on their own-- ignorance (real or perceived) is not intelligence/stupidity. When you were a wee child, you probably took at face value some stories of fairies or Santa or something, until the time came you were enlightened otherwise, by your own reasoning or someone else. On the other hand, if no one ever, ever told you there weren't really fairies at the bottom of the garden, would you know to recognize fairies as fabrications-- "to tell fiction from reality"--when you got older? All of life is learning, one way or another. The reality of fairies is easy; the nuances of abuse are not.

^ this.

I talked about it upthread but also, as someone raised in a family that was emotionally and sometimes physically abusive... in comparison, someone like Edward, who claims to be doing all this for Bella's safety and because he loves her, can look really damn good. And that's a reality that no small number of girls grow up in.

As I said, though, fairies are easy. The nuances of abuse are hard. Many atheists grew up religiously, but you know what? Atheists are a minority in the global population. Most of the people raised religiously keep on being religious.
