Twilight is escapist reading, and Twilight fans want Bella's life the same way James Bond fans want James Bond's life, which is to say, they might say they want it but they're not really serious, and if you ask them if they really, truly, want to get shot at all the time and have all their girlfriends die horribly (or have a boyfriend who sneaks into the house and watches them sleep) they will say no.
But because most Twilight fans are girls, people freak the fuck out in ways that they would never freak out about James Bond or any of the dozens of other fantasy characters that primarily straight boys and men identify with who have terrible relationship and dating strategies (and horrifying personal and professional lives) that nobody should ever emulate.
The vast majority of people who read Twilight know it's a fantasy and don't actually plan their lives around it.
Besides, if we're going to ban books that mess up people's lives when taken too seriously, the vast majority of religious scriptures, not to mention everything ever written by Ayn Rand and Robert Heinlein, go first. (Note: I'm not an atheist and I actually enjoy Rand and Heinlein, I just don't think they're a good basis for politics or economics, so please don't flame me in defence of them.)
