I just had a conversation with a friend about Twilight and it actually disturbed me a little in the end. I guess the main draw for most women (that are into Twilight) is the extreme romance between Edward and Bella, but it really doesn't seem all that new or different from girls who like shitty Bon Jovi copyrock of the 90s and overly expressive emo bands of the last decade like Dashboard Confessional. I guess these are the girls I'd have the initial instinct to stay the fuck away from for the most part anyway, but it's kind of upsetting that Twilight could be the ship to carry all these new followers into this mindset and be the model women use against guys now to encourage them to be "more like Edward."
Is that depressing to anyone else? lol I think the notion to love a certain way is mostly the depressing part.
