This Is Just My Thoughts - Tumblr Posts
It’s the ___ for me *Twilight Edition* Don’t blame the characters, blame the author
Bella: It’s the being written as a powerful and independent character then falling into a damsel in distress and Stepford wife complex, being a subpar and disregarding Edward’s morals for me (if he wanted to wait till marriage to have sex, let him, sis)
Edward: It’s the superiority complex despite the clear self hatred, clear disrespect for boundaries, possessiveness,disregarding Bella’s morals (if she didn’t want to get married at 18 like her parents, then wait), stalking and misogyny for me (homie, pick a damn struggle)
Jacob: It’s the non-consensual kiss and fact that he should’ve stayed the best friend instead of being a love interest. And it’s the fact that he should NOT have imprinted on Bella’s DAUGHTER for me
Carlisle: It’s the turning of children and barely-adults into vampires and falling for a sixteen-year-old girl when he was CLEARLY an adult for me
Esme: nothing, she’s perfect
Jasper: It’s the being a proud Confederate soldier for me
Alice: It’s the living vicariously through her family members without being considerate of their own feelings as well as aiding Edward in his obsessive (and toxic) behavior towards Bella for me (i get that she was a victim and was abused, but she could at least ask Bella and her family members if she could dress them or what they LIKED to wear)
Rosalie: almost nothing, just a tiny thing that kinda bugs me but not really. if she had been more compassionate towards Bella when she explained her past and reasons why Bella should reconsider vampirism, then accepted that it’s Bella’s choice, it would’ve been a great friendship that everyone wanted anyway.
Emmett: nothing at all. absolutely unproblematic. we stan himbo kings that love their wife/girlfriend and live their best lives
Charlie: nothing. great friend. better dad. love him (edit: pisses me off and disappoints me to suddenly remember that not only you did nothing when Jacob assaulted your daughter, but you joked around with him about it, completely invalidating Bella’s anger, hurt, betrayal and disgust)
Renee: It’s the blatant negligence of her only daughter and forcing her to grow up quickly while being completely unaware but relying on her and a sucky baseball player completely for me
Phil: (bet y’all didn’t expect me to include this fool did’ya?) It’s the witnessing the clearly disproportionate and co-dependent mother/daughter relationship and doing/saying nothing about it when you could’ve and should’ve for me
Mike: It’s the misogyny and pining after a taken woman even after she was clearly uninterested in you while you knowingly had another girl trailing after you for me
Jessica: It’s the using Bella for popularity and then being jealous of her for snagging the hot guy while you humiliate yourself by going after guys where you’re the second choice for me (honey, you can do better than mike schmike and eddy-spaghetti and you and Bella could’ve had a beautiful friendship
Eric: nothing notable. he had a crush on Bella, but stepped off when he noticed she was both uninterested and taken.
Angela: nothing. great friend. great girlfriend. wish we had more of her.
Ben: nothing. great boyfriend. hella unproblematic.
Lauren: It’s the being a bitch to Bella for no reason for me. If there were rumors about Bella and the Cullens (we all know that there were), she started them. It’s also the fact that she wreaked herself and took it out on everyone else for me
Tyler: It’s the being inconsiderate and thinking that taking a girl to prom without asking her if she’s actually interested as a solution to nearly killing her for me
Sam: It’s the cheating on your girlfriend and then leaving her for her cousin who she was very close to THEN mauling your new girlfriend and having the gall to lecture others on their control for me
Seth, Leah, Emily, Quil, Embry, Paul, Jared and Brady (the wolf pack): unproblematic. baby. deserves the world and the universe. love them.
Renesmee: nothing wrong with her. kinda pity her. her name rhymes with resume.
