I'm not saying there aren't plenty of valid reasons to criticise Twilight. There are. But a huge amount of the negative press it gets isn't "This is the shit young girls are stuck with?", it's been "Stupid girly crap is so crap and I can't believe stupid girls like this crap!"

Yeah, and it doesn't help much that the questionable, shitty, and problematic stuff marketed to adolescent boys is a lot more likely to get a pass.

Yeah, Twilight is problematic as hell, but most of the hate for it that I see is less "it's poorly-written and depicts an extremely unhealthy and emotionally abusive relationship and strict adherence to gender roles as the ultimate romantic ideal" and more "it's stupid girly crap SPARKLY VAMPIRES SHIRTLESS WEREWOLVES."

Maybe it's just the spaces where I hang out but 90% of the Twilight ranting I hear is about how harmful it is to young impressionable girls. Most of the criticism I hear are about Edward's abusive behavior and stalking, imprinting grossness, Sam and Emily's relationship (also abusive), and stuff like that.

"Stupid girly crap is so crap and I can't believe stupid girls like this crap!"

Also, LOL! People actually say stuff like about Twilight? Like adult people? That sounds so juvenile, I literally I would expect to hear something like that out of an 8 year old that thinks girls have cooties.
