Rip Torn's eyes would barely open and his face was a ravaged, haggard, stubbly mess. His chapped lips stuck together, and the pavement had left a red, mottled impression against his cheek. He looked around blearily, barely able to focus...

Demonstrate value
Engage physically
Nurture dependence
Neglect emotionally
Inspire hope
Separate entirely

Well DUH
The Vampires Bite/Werewolves Maul are all an allegory for SEX (You "do it"/"get Mauled or Bitten" and CHANGE and become a BEAST)
Bella's a virgin, no lovemaking, just looking and longing and feelings and poop.
Score = 0
Oof, wait till the fourth book - DRACULA FUCKING SPOILER ALERT when Edward & Bella have sex (when she is still human), he covers her in bruises because of his superhuman vampire-fucking strength. YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKES

The worst thing about it is that teenage girls LOVE it.
"I sooo want Edward to bruise me up in bed. Yowww."
NO, STUPID GIRL. YOU ARE TOO YOUNG FOR BDSM. AND THIS IS FUCKED UP. DOMESTIC ABUSE IS NOT SEXY.
Score = 4

Once again, I have to point out that werewolves and vampires don't give a shit about human rules. Therefore, as much as I hate to say it, it's all Bella's fault. I mean, do you see how she dresses? It looks like she wants it.
WAITAMINUTE.
Why is so much of this website's antics based around sexual abuse? Rape-rape and vampire-on-bella-on-werewolf sexual abuse! ACK!
Also, I posted this last week a little late and I want some damn feedback!!!

Aw, everyone's a critic...

I hope these friends of yours are teenagers. If so, you can hope they'll grow out of their bad taste. If not, CREEPS.
