Well, for me, part of my Twilight dislike--I don't hate the books, but someone would have to pay me for me to read them again, and I only got through the first three--comes from being in a room with 6,000+ Twilight fans during the SD Comic-Con panel for the first movie. I had never seen such disrespectful, skeevy behavior from so many people at once in real life before, and keep in mind I was at Comic-Con, where a certain amount of neckbeard social idiocy is to be expected. It creeped me out. And I work in a library and have had quite a few conversations with people who liked Twilight--one girl said she wanted her own Edward, and when I got kind of incredulous and asked if she wanted a possessive stalker, she said she didn't care about that, as long as someone as attractive as he was would be completely obsessed with her and never look at anyone else. And another woman said the most romantic part of the books was the bit where Edward admitted to breaking into Bella's bedroom to watch her sleep. I said that was edging into restraining order territory for me, and she said she wished her husband would do things like that, because it would prove how much he loved her. Oh, and she said if I was being followed around by someone handsome I'd change my mind. (I had been. It didn't.) Those two conversations stand out as particularly wtf worthy, but the rest mainly just said that Edward's behavior was romantic, they didn't go into detail about wanting an Edward of their own.
