The “Twilight”-inspired obsession with ravening predators and the women who love them grows more unsettling with every passing year — the thrill of surrendering one’s heart to a man who must continually fight his rage-filled blood-thirst is far too close to the pattern of domestic abuse for comfort, even if the man in question is a glittering vampire or the regretful product of a military experiment gone wrong…
One can only hope that this marks the last limping leg of the inter-species romance, because in real life, true love should not include a partner whose first instinct is to kill you.
