• i know what you're saying. the audience is mostly teenage girls. you also have to remember he is an actor so girls are going to like him. girls are still girls and boys are still boys. it is like if you had a "popular " boy at your school but he isn't the cutest boy but several girls like him for unknown reasons. and trust me edward is not all that. i know too many people who have never even heard of the twilight series.

• I was thinking of Edward as a character, not about Robert Pattinson the actor, but what you say makes sense, too.

• Twilight is an antifeminist piece of crap and I hope Stephanie Meyer will burn in hell for the wrongs she's done to young girls' psyches =P Also, Edward Cullen is your stereotypical abusive boyfriend. I want to beat him with a big stick. Love you!

• Sometimes, women are the worst misogynists, in terms of believing that they aren't as capable as a man.

• Yep, that is the original saying. But from experience I know that losing love hurts much more than never knowing the difference. ;)

• "Protective"? More like controlling and on the way to becoming abusive.

• I don't know what story you read or movie you saw, but Edward doesn't control her. And how is he abusive? He would never put bella in harms way intentionally. Obviously their relationship is far from normal, but never when i think of them do i think "controlling" and "abusive".

• I didn't say abusive, I said on the way to becoming abusive. He is controlling (won't let her see her friends, won't let her do anything he does not agree with, etc etc), and has all the signs of a partner who will one day become abusive (Not letting her see her friends, forcing her to cut ties with them, monopolizing her time and attention, getting her/encouraging her to sneak behind her father's back, trivializing her opinions so she feels as if what she says is inferior to his opinion/doesn't matter... ) The list goes on. He may not be abusive yet, but if this were a real relationship, I don't doubt that it would escalate.

• Err, no, I'm not jealous. I'm just a girl who has seen abusive relationships firsthand, and can recognize the signs of a potential abusive partner. It worries me that other girls my age are now seeking men like this Edward character, men who are obviously bad for them. I don't want any of my friends falling into the same trap.

  And also, not to sound full of myself, but I think I've got a fair bit more going for me than a fictional character. At least I don't have a panic attack every time I kiss my partner...

• Did you read the book or see the movie? cause in the book he actually encourages her to tell her father about them, he never forced her to give up her friends, she lost connection with them on her own, she was the one to make him her life, he didn't force himself upon her, and i have no idea where you got the "inferior to his opinion/doesn't matter," because, because if anything, i saw the opposite.
  
  I've seen some of your answers to other twilight questions. If you dislike it so much then why not avoid the whole subject altogether? stop following it or that just makes you another twilight obsessed person.
  *wogboy, I think you hit it on the mark with the whole jealousy thing.
  
  
  And maybe your partner just isn't as great a kisser as edward, therefore you don't want to jump his bones every chance you get.

• Yes, I read the books and I saw the movie. I have overprotective parents, they were not going to let my sister read the books or see the movie unless someone else did first, and told them that it was ok. Unfortunately, I got stuck with that job.
  He DID force her to give up her friends, even getting to the point of physically restraining her and damaging her car when she tried to see her friends in La Push.
  If she wanted to do something, and he didn't like it, he'd just start kissing her, or telling her that she was wrong, or making it seem like she had access to less knowledge on the subject that him (which often was false).
  And the only time I actually answer twilight questions is when they pop up on the main page. I answer all kinds of questions, usually from the main page. I've never gone hunting for questions on this subject.
  -
  And really, I'm not jealous. My boyfriend is more attractive than Robert Pattinson, and he doesn't have a fit every time I try to touch him, unlike "edward"

• i guess we may never see eye to eye. I don't see what you saw, unless i over exaggerate what actually happened. He didn't force her to give up her friends, unless they were werewolves, and even then he gave in. And Bella was the one to usually have the fit.
