And she wasn't intending them to be creepy. Her work is much better on many levels that she did not intend at all than the one she did, such as the "Edward is an extremely awkward 108 year old virgin" standpoint, and the "Bella is the emotionally manipulative villain" standpoint (I don't remember exactly how the guy argued it, I might be able to find it, but it might have been archived by now, it was on SA).

No. Nope. Sorry. The Twilight Saga is about as complex as a toothpick. The whole Edward is an extremely awkward virgin is true, we kind of know that, the allegory is obvious. Stephanie Meyer stated it a bunch in interviews and I'm sure it's spelled out in the book at some point. They have to stay virgins because otherwise their beautiful relationship just won't work, as much as Bella thinks otherwise.
And seriously, give me some quotes for how Bella is an emotionally manipulative villian. Hell, give me some quotes about how Bella is even a character who has any kind of personality traits at all. There is nothing there to her character, I read through all of...Breaking Dawn and the most I can come up with is that she loves Edward with all of her heart, loves Jacob Black...but only as a friend, and wants to keep her freak-child.....of whom she calls Renesmee but everyone calls her Nessie. She doesn't like the name Nessie. That was all I got.
And this is also a woman who actively in her books compares the Twilight Saga's "love" to Romeo and Juliet and some other classic romance novel. Wuthering Heights.
