So today my English teacher told me what Twilight is really about

That makes two of us ;)

 

never mind, I was thinking of something else

 

of coure it is you couldent tell just by wacthing...
the damm weare-wolf doesent stay five damm seconds without his shirt on to make RE-tar-TED girls scream in the movie teather,
and lets not forget that incredible gay scene from the last movie

bella practicaly trows herself @ him and says no.

 

This is all very true, but the metaphor goes much deeper. The whole "forbidden love" between Bella and Edward (because the vamoire society looks down on human and vampire pairs) supposedly represents how homosexuals are forbidden to show their love in society because it is looked down on. And when Bella and Jacob try and become a couple and weren't able to display their love, Jacob said they would be accepted if "the world were perfect" which is once again similiar to the fact that homosexuals wouldn't have to hide if the world was more accepting.

 

ohh i get it now...
so they are a gay couple
i always focused n thouse gay scenes of the movies i never actualy noticed this.

 

Most people didn't, including me. In fact I never even saw all the movies. My girlfriend drug me to the first two but I never saw the last one.

 

my cousin draged me to c it,
i guess it wasnt that bad, sytory-wise but all the ga lines and scenes kinda ruined it...

 

The only thing that annoyed me was that Jacob took off his shirt every five seconds, and all the girls would freak the f**k out.

 

Am I the only one who thought that Twilight (as in the first book) was actually a halfway decent YA novel? ._.

I don't think there's much of a deep metaphor in there. It concerns forbidden love in general, and homosexuality is certainly a part of that, but I don't think it's limited to just that.

 

if a girl screams a jacob taking his shirt off the she is defenently a virgin
nuff said

no i liked the first book but the movie kinda ruined it...

 

Haha you have a point wolfie. English teachers always look at things waaaay too deeply.

 

And that's also the difference between boring literature and entertaining literature.

Of course, I've often considered being an English teacher, so take my opinion for what you will, haha.

 

You sound like you'd make a good English teacher, just promise me that you won't look rediculously deep into literature if you become one lol.

 

But sometimes that's the only thing that keeps it from being boring.
