I'm going to once again post my hatred for Twilight

Why This Middle-Aged Woman Loathes Twilight--An Encore
Here, again, are the five best reasons to hate Twilight.
Published on November 18, 2009
Precisely because the Twilight franchise is more than just a goofy boxed-set of romance novels, a la Barbara Cartland or Danielle Steele (both of whom, no kidding, are far better writers than Meyer), The Twilight Experience IS scary and people should be warned.

I'm serious.

As far as I'm concerned, the least scary parts of Twilight concern blood-sucking vampires and/or unborn babies chomping on a teen-mom's cervix to get free. Those are the fun parts compared to the latent, covert lessons of feminine subjection, abjection, and erasure of self inherent in the novels.

Of course, that could just be my girlish way of looking at things.

Okay, ready? Here are the five best reasons to hate Twilight:

1. The ONLY real reason young women like Twilight is because of Edward. That is sad.

Why? It's sad because vampire Edward is NOT who you want to end up with, especially for eternity.

Stuck with Edward's family in a sunless, airless, dull mansion, having conversations that hint at the possibility of ancient patterns of potential incest now repressed, not having sex, and eating game meats?It would be like being married to an Englishman but without the cute accent or the trace amounts of humor.
Also, after 119 years, shouldn't he be out of high school already? Give the boy a Kaplan program. Let him crack 1000 in his SATs by the 47th time and get the kid into a community college somewhere.

2. Let's get back to the sex, or lack of it, which is what hooks girls on the first volume: female readers love that Edward sleeps beside Bella and apparently only wants to kiss her neck.

Why do they like that? Because most real live (i.e. not-dead, not 100 year-old-plus) guys who come within touching distance (so to speak) spend their time lunging almost randomly at breasts and buttocks.The amateur kisses of actual boys taste of gum and burritos, and they breathe audibly through their noses while they slip their tongues down the girls' throats like they're lizards hunting for flies.

They are most decidedly not doing what Meyer's Bat Boy does in the all-important thirteenth chapter of the first book, in the passage that makes girls gasp with delight and cross their legs even if they don't know why: "he simply bent his face to mine, and brushed his lips slowly along my jaw, from my ear to my chin, back and forth. I trembled."

Actual boys are not models of aloof, self-contained self-control; they are like Labrador retrievers. Girls should be aware of the fact that, when they encounter an immaculately groomed, perfectly manicured, impeccably dressed, polite, restrained young man who initially avoids their company when paired with them during science lab, what they have not met is the man of their dreams. What they have met is their new best gay male friend.

3. We should be appalled by Edward because Edward takes away Bella's keys to her very own car saying "You're intoxicated by my very presence" whereupon she says--wait for it--"There was no way around it; I couldn't resist him in anything."

Fifty years of the women's movement and that's what we get: "I couldn't resist him in anything"?

How nuts is this? Lucy Ricardo showed more backbone! Lambchop the Puppet showed more backbone than this "Lamb" does!

How about if Bella kept her own keys--and her own integrity--and drove away from the narcissistic bastard?

By the way, the runner-up for this position was a line from an earlier chapter where Bella exclaims "I couldn't imagine anything about me that could be in any way interesting to him."

For all those folks who say we're in a post-feminist generation: guess we still have a teensy bit of work on the whole self-esteem-building business for our girls, yes?

4. Back to the self-description of the characters as specific members of the food chain: girls, remember that if you're the lamb and he's the lion, you may lie down together,but you're still an entree.

5. Drum roll, please, as we get to the finale: "About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him- and I didn't know how potent that part may be- that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him."

(That line is on page 195-- although curiously enough, when the passage is quoted on the back cover of the trade paperback, "potent" is changed to "dominant" and I bet we can imagine why.)

So the big reason to loathe Twilight? Fear of your lover should not be an aphrodisiac. Ever.

Let's sum up, shall we? Why is Twilight scarier for a grown-up woman than it is for a younger one?

Because we understand the implications.

Because we know that even as a romantic fantasy, it's a damaging one; that even for a trashy book, it's a lousy one; and that even-or especially-as an for escape for a young woman who's longing to break out of her everyday confinements, it's a trap.

Teenage Pop Stars hitting the Media

Here is Rebecca Black. Her music has begun to take over the Internet with the song "Friday" that hit the Internet about 3 weeks ago. It's been all over and basically ruined every Friday for me. The over use of autotune and awkard lyrics and dancing is just a slap in the face to anyone with talent that deserves to be famous. If that really is something someone would want for their lives.


Yes this is real and yes she did just name the days of the week and yes she did just say "We so Excited"

On the YouTube Videos some people have shown a lot of disfavor for this song
Here are some examples:
"good god, how do these people get famous? This is terrible music and she has NO talent..."

"Yeah. Im not saying its anything close too a good song, but she is 12. what du you expect? willow smith?"

"You know, everyone saying that her lyrics are stupid, you need to look deeper, there's RICH metaphors and symbolism here. For example, which seat can she REALLY take? Should she "kick it" in the front seat and take control of her life for the first time? Or should she "chill" in the backseat and let someone, or something, else drive her life for her, like she's done all the way up to this decisive moment? This moment can dictate the rest of her life, which seat will she take... Deep man, deep..."



Another Teen Pop craze is a girl named Jenna Rose. I feel like this video is totally inappropriate for a 12 year old girl to

I really loved this guy's response to Jenna Rose's video. He honestly says it best. Mainly because he says it with a British accent.


The people that are putting these girls out here like this are THEIR PARENTS! Seriously? Don't parents have higher goals for their children now? What happened to wanting your child to be a good person? Or wanting them to change the world or be a revolution for the world? I don't understand this craze for fame. It's Disney that's done this with people like Miley Cyrus and Justin Beiber influencing this generation.

*sigh*
Until Next time
XOXO
