Finally, my theory about Twilight, Harry Potter and teenage girls.

So, why do we girls like these Twilight books so much? This question is in the head of many guys. They don’t get it and at one time I didn’t either. Why is there all this fascination for that sparkling vampire and his ow-my-god-I’m-so-plain girlfriend? I love it, don’t get me wrong, but it can be quite stupido. The question is why? I’VE GOT THE ANSWER PEOPLE!

Okay, so first of all, why is Harry Potter so friggin popular? That is easy. It is well written, it is funny, and it is original (Maybe not everything but most of it...) and it is loved. Both girls and guys around the world can’t get enough of the magical world. It is one best sold book series in the world. There are fan fictions, parodies and spin-offs. There are coffee cups, loads of different candies and calendars. Written, made and invented by both girls and boys. But Twilight is only for girls. And we all know that is true. The reason is that Twilight is not good literature. It is not special, and not surprising. But it is a fantasy. When you read Twilight as a girl you imagine you are Bella, and you imagine that the perfect guy called Edward, who sparkles, falls head over heels for you. There is no sex pressure, your heart beats every time you see him, and he would give his life for you? Isn’t that perfect? Apart from that there is some adventure in your life, and BOOM BATS this muscular nice guy falls for you too. And hey! He’s a werewolf. You have to make a choice, poor you.

Yes, even though they won’t admit it, that IS every girls dream. At least when they’re 13-18. It is like one of those cheesy doctors roman’s, that are in every supermarket, the ones with Pablo and Jasmine on the front, he half naked, she almost fainting, with a sunset and floating cloths.

So that is why we read them guys. They are our porn. We will forget about after a while, don’t worry, but right now, I understand the hysteria. I don’t get the thing about R-Patz though.
