So many people say, "well, they didn't have sex!" <br /><br />It is my impression Bella would have, she expected Edward to have all the self-control. But Edward wasn't avoiding it for the reason of avoiding sex, but because he was afraid he would kill her. That would wipe out my desire in a hurry, you know?<br /><br />That's a small part of why I am shocked that so many people accept this story as wonderful for their daughters.<br /><br />Thanks for the place to vent!<br />LynnLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629132084441191734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6220008586703373188.post-52808649053746830942009-12-15T09:45:02.683-07:002009-12-15T09:45:02.683-07:00I honestly don't know what it is about the cha...I honestly don't know what it is about the characters that keep me coming back. I definitely like Edward a lot more than Bella, but I don't hate Bella. She does get pretty whiny and stupid in New Moon, though, I do agree. But the reason why I said I liked the movie New Moon better than Twilight was not because of storyline but because it was DONE so much better--a lot more money was put into the production and effects, so I was able to enjoy it more. Although, there were still a few parts where I had to laugh out loud because of the cheesiness (such as the part when Edward's "ghost" figure is shown floating next to Bella under the water...ha!). Anyway, I don't know if any of that makes sense. I'll have to think more about how to put into words what I like about Bella...it could take awhile. haha =D<br /><br />And I look forward to watching Julie and Julia sometime, too!Leannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05916339793849261845noreply@blogger.com
