WHY TWILIGHT IS A “CHICK FLICK” THAT HATES WOMEN:
In Twilight, a boring-ass twitchy girl named Bella falls in love with a shiny vampire named Edward. And for some reason not explained by the movie, he loves her back. So just be your clumsy, mouth-breathing selves ladies. Someday, if you’re skinny enough, someone exotic will love you for just being “you.”
And How Does This Hate Women?
Take the vampirism from this movie and all you’re left with is Ike and Tina right before Tina refuses to eat the cake. Edward stomps, broods, sneers and snidely tells his love interest to fuck off, but that’s just the forbidden fruit angle Bella needs to stand around like a dumbass waiting for her stalker/boyfriend to confess his love/violent lust for her tasty blood. He’ll confess a few MURDERS while he’s at it. Bellasees his murderous lust and raises him a dead-eyed vacant stare and the flippant assurance that he’d never hurt her. This entire movie is one black-eyed-teen away from being a PSA from 1989.
EDWARD CULLEN
I’ve killed people before.
ISABELLA SWAN
It does not matter.
EDWARD CULLEN
I wanted to kill you at first. I’ve never wanted a human’s blood so much, before.
ISABELLA SWAN
I trust you.
Any girl with the self-esteem of a shoe would call it a day right there. And the next time a Cracked intern with a violent boyfriend hobbles into the office on a broken leg with a cockamamie story about falling down the stairs, then out the window, we’re going to believe her. Thanks, Twilight.
