Girls everywhere have heard this question before, “What’s so great about vampires?” The question is usually asked by a guy and accompanied by a roll of the eyes or an impatient sigh. Well guys, here are a few reasons why girls are so obsessed with the Twilight series written by Stephanie Meyer.

Bella and Edward - The Average Girl Gets the Hot Guy
Bella Swan, the main character, (played by Kristen Stewart) drives an ugly truck and doesn’t dress with any style. She loves to read and is an introvert, not a cheerleader. Her friends are few and her home life is less than stellar. However, it is she who Edward Cullen (played by Robert Pattinson) is attracted to.

If Edward loves Bella just as she is, than the average girls can feel satisfied with being just who she is. Few girls consider themselves the popular girl, the prom queen or the life of every party. Therefore, they can relate to Bella’s plainness. The hottest, most mysterious guy in school can appreciate the unspectacular normal girl, and that is a welcome relief from the pressure to be popular and perfect.

Twilight is a Love Story

Edward loves Bella to the exclusion of all else. He protects her, worries about her and takes care of her. He is devoted to her and considers her needs far above his own. In Twilight, Edward tells Bella, “You are my life.” In New Moon (the second book in the series) he says, “You will always be the most beautiful thing in my world.” And in Eclipse (the third book) Edward declares, “You are my first priority.”

The fact that Edward is sincere in what he says to Bella makes the Twilight series especially gratifying to readers. These books are not merely fantasies, but love stories. Girls are swept off their feet by Edward’s maturity and thoughtfulness. They appreciate his compassionate nature and loving concern for Bella.

Bella is a True Friend
Although many people in the community of Forks, Washington find Edward scary and dangerous, Bella only sees the good in him. She sticks by him even after learning the secret he harbors; Edward is a vampire. In the same way, she is also fiercely loyal to Jacob (her best friend). Upon discovering that Jacob is a werewolf, Bella is unphased. She asserts that their friendship will prevail.

Bella is the type of friend that girls want. She is accepting and trustworthy. Her values are not skewed by society. She remains faithful, reliable and devoted to her friends.

Edward is a Gentleman
Edward is Bella’s knight in shining armor. He treats Bella with respect in all situations. He refuses to have sex outside of marriage because he wants everything to be perfect when it comes to her. He drives when they go out, takes care of her every need and is polite and courteous to her father. He even holds her and sings to her.

Edward is so popular because girls love the way he treats Bella. Girls want to be treated like a lady, they want the guy to take charge, make plans for dates and be respectful. So what makes Edward so appealing? He isn’t pushy or boorish, but classy and sophisticated. He is smart and well read, mannered and considerate. Edward truly loves Bella and wants whatever is best for her.

The Twilight Mystery is Solved
Alright guys, now the mystery is solved. It is clear why girls adore the Twilight books. Like “chic flicks,” these books are going to be around for a while. They appeal to women of all ages and don’t seem to be waning in popularity anytime soon. Instead of being annoyed, win some points by accompanying that special girl to see Eclipse.

I disagree. I'm a girl, and I don't like Twilight.

guys am a hp fan but seeing the way these twilighters are suffering,i had to lend them a helping hand
for me its
HARRY POTTER ALL THE WAY

Oh! Gods, I feel like an idiot. :D

I know I'm really late but Harry Potter doesn't have romance? Since when? Harry/Ginny thank you (eventhough I don't agree with the pairing.) Not one person you see in the movies die (Twilight) whereas in the movies (Harry Potter) and books they say who died and you see it so :).

I dont agree with you. you see the security gaurd in twilight die and james you can actually see some of it. In eclispe Victoria dies and in new moon Laurent dies. so you know the characters die you here and see them being mentioned at points after their deaths.

And... Irina. WHY DOES EVERYONE ALWAYS FORGET ABOUT HER!!! Gods.

Cause she's so unimportant to the plot, besides being a character SMeyer just put there to tattletale.
The deaths in twilight are nothing. No one feels any loss for those deaths, while in harry Potter you grieve and you can also feel the characters' grief.

Well, only the "bad" people died who were hardly in the story, except to serve the purpose of a plot. In real life, good people die and make sacrifices. Just think: when you watch the news, there are so many reports about car accidents, murders, house invasions and most people have died, not only the people considered bad. In Twilight, all the bad people died, while the good people got a happy ending without actually giving anything up, which is highly unrealistic.

^Not only highly unrealistic but terribly gag-worthy, mushy, cringe-worthy, boring....you get the point.
Siriusly, the oh-so-happy ending killed me. Maybe, just maybe, SMeyer could have redeemed herself a little if she had had a good ending, but.....*shudder*
Come on, even you Twilight fans have to admit that ending of BD was bad.

Actually, Breaking Dawn would be a pretty good book for sex Ed teachers. "Don't have sex, or you'll get pregnant and die!" which is what happened to Bella.

^lol

That would be awesome, GD. xD

I wanted the story to be:

Bella has always been an outcast in Phoenix. She thinks differently and is conservative. She only has her mom to help her around. Her mom, though, gets killed [which the police suspects is a murder.] The murderer leaves a note saying Bella is next, so for her safety she gets sent to live with her dad in Forks. Her first day there, many people at school talk to her [only because she's a mini-celeb because of her mum] which angers her because she feels like they don't know how hurtful it is to lose a loved one. She gets drawn to Edward because he's the only one who looks like he has a calm demeanor. Anyway, in Biology she sits next to him, but then realizing how rude he is, she lashes out on him. The next day she finds out how she has to do a school project with him and considering she loves doing school work and wants good grades, she accepts. Anyway, at Edward's house, his family is acting weirdly and she keeps hearing them say, "Alice, are you sure what you saw was real?" Anyway, 'guests' come over and the whole family looks angry. Bella then comes downstairs to see what's happening when James gets excited and is about to kill her. He is with the Volturi, who say they need to kill Bella because her mother knew too much and they know she knows just as much. Edward attempts to save her and a huge fight breaks out. Almost all the Cullens die [except Esme and Rosalie.] Anyway, Bella and Edward die too and then the Volturi go away saying, "the job is complete."

Hehe, that is my version of Twilight.

I like it much better than the other version! Finally someone dies! But I reckon you should just make them all die. It'll be much better.
Where are all the Twihards?!
Ooooooh Twihards, come ouuuuuut!!!

I think they've gone.

We scared them off. They have no reasons why Twilight is better than Harry Potter so they've given up. I think it's official. Harry Potter wins.

No.. Posts such as the ones above this one are annoying.
It has nothing to do with fear or "victory".

I was never aware that there was really a competition...
To be fair, we can never say which one is better in terms of quality, because their basic demographic is different (Harry Potter's being generally larger).
There's stuff that Harry Potter has that is better than Twilight, but the opposite can also be said. For example, Smeyer is better at wrting romance, but JK Rowling is better at telling an actual story. I guess it just depends what your personal likes are...

And yes, I know this is totally against what I've said before, but a kid can change. Not the anti I once was. :D x

I like a devil, I have a reason why twilight is better than HP Its more easy to understand

wow I did no understand a word u just said Italktosnakes

Okay, pinklover. But easy stuff is not always good.

I'll say it simply

NO COMPETITION. JK ROWLING IS BETTER IN SOME THINGS. SOME THINGS MEYER IS BETTER AT. DEPENDS ON YOUR OPINION.

There...better? :) x

And the meaning of the word some can vary, depending on your opinion.

How can you say JK Rowling isn't good at writing romance if she hasn't written romance, Harry Potter isn't about romance (although still about love) and the main theme of Twilight is romance. Saying this, JK Rowling is much better at conveying actual LOVE than SMeyer.

^ Exactly!
Though I do agree that their two completely different writers and book, and JKR might be better in some things, same thing can be said about SM

The slight attempts to add romance to Harry Potter weren't that great.

Cassie, you just took the words right out of my mouth...well, screen.
As a Harry Potter fan, I can say that the way she wrote Romance was not the best. The way she showed love in general was great, but Romance was not her forte. :) x

I must admit, I HATE all the canon couples. Except for Romione.

I don`t like DracoLuver`s version of twilight. It`s very dark even for my taste. Although two of my favorite characters live and I wanted Alice, Emmett, and Carlisle to live as well.

^ hm, yeah, but well, people die everyday. Bella and Eddy should have died then it would be like Romeo and Juliet. But I guess everyone has different tastes :)

Rom and Jule is a satire. Just sayin'.

What is Smeyer better at than JK Rowling? I can't think of anything....

Well, JK Rowling could never fail as bad as SM did even if she tried.

I would write down the plot of my version of Twilight... but meh, can't be bothered.

I'm not a huge fan of the way Rowling wrote the romace either so I guess I'd agree there. I wouldn't say Smeyer was better though.

I can't relate to whatever you are saying.
I haven't been on line for so long... and I got tired of listening to these quarrels.
I don't know why they/you quarreled about these two awesome movies.
I don't know why, but I thought the more I researched about Twilight, the more I'm beginning to hate it.
But, also I thought that Harry Potter might be too magical that it was so exaggerated.
And, Twilight's not so good because I think that Bella Swan CARES more about her Edward Cullen than his father or his friends and I think also that she loves Edward more than GOD. I prefer that way because I look into every angle I could judge a thing and that was why I do not like it much.
And well, for Harry Potter... yeah it was good, but I can't relate to any character there. To what they are for, why they are there. I can't seek what Harry is into, or what Hermione... and the others. It seemed like Rowling missed that one.
Twilight's creator SMeyer have that one but her point was very bad(for me).
But I'll say they are both awesome. I'm tryin' to say, why would they become famous if they are not good(for some people)?

Well, that is all I've got. Thanks.
Also... Before, I'm with Twilight. Then I'm with Harry Potter. But now... When someone would ask me, "Which are you in? Harry Potter or Twilight?" I'll answer 'or' or the 'space' between them.

So will you please STOP?

^Huh? Stop what?

Twilight teaches us that people aren't ugly.

No, it teaches us that ugly people aren't important. x

Nobody was described as ugly

Because they're not important enough to be in the book. Saying that nobody is ugly, AT ALL, is unrealistic

I agree with Accio. Making everyone beautiful and perfect makes teens want those type of people around them, when in fact, they do not exist!

everyone wasn't perfect. nobody was ugly, just like in the real world.

Eric was described as ugly. Lawyered.

i do not intend to be mean when i say this. i just severely dislike the twilight Obsession.


can i just say that the reason there isnt 1000 reasons yet is because TWILIGHT ISN'T BETTER

there are nearly 900 pages of response on that page
how many are there on this question?
45

VAMPIRES DO NOT SPARKLE.
THEY BURN UP IF THEY GO IN THE SUNLIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BELLA IS A COMPLETE DRIP.

TWILIGHT IS A FEEBLE ATTEMPT AT A STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!



IF YOU WANT TO READ A DECENT BOOK ABOUT VAMPIRES TRY THE HOUSE OF NIGHT SERIES OR INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

harry potter is better for kids. e.g. THERE IS NO SEX!!!

twitards who think twilight is better for children are WRONG.

EVERYTHING in twilight is about how HOT Bella thinks Edward is and how much he wants to kill her.
Harry Potter has characters that, although we may not have magic powers, we can still relate to. They actually HAVE PERSONALITIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i apoligise

900 pages of reasons? no. 900 pages of spam

Erik wasn't ugly. he looked like a chess club guy. it never said ugly

twilight is an insult to literacy

900 pages of spam? Did you even read the first 400 pages? The thing said 1000 and we got over 2000, so we fufilled the purpose, and now the forum is used for talking.
