My issue is not that they sparkle. My issue is that Meyer implies that Stalking is Sexy and a Healthy Expression of Protective Love. My calling Edward "Prince Twinklebritches" is only because it's the only nickname for him that truly grasps the only redeeming qualities he seems to have as a cis-gendered, heterosexual, vanilla love interest, namely, he has pretty twinkly skin and he wears pants.

I'm Team Maccon, all the way, though, so maybe I'm biased. At least he eventually figures out that his style of romance is not winning him any points.
