HP vs Twilight

[jo_anne_storm]

From one of my friends on FB:
You know what I just realized, Harry Potter is about family, friends, truth, courage, justice, etc. & Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend

So very very true.

Yeah...

Twilight could also be about how important it is to have a Husband. Consider the authors, and their backgrounds.

Bella initially refused to marry Edward, IIRC. And since Bella is supposed to represent every girl, then doesn't that mean that Meyer, at least, thinks that no girl wants to be married?

Actually, having not read the books, I can't say.

From what I saw in the movie, I gathered that she refused because she didn't think she was ready to be married because she was too young...

But she did it anyway because she wanted to have sex. Edward was the one who insisted on getting married first.
