I'm sticking up for 'Twilight' again.

There are some among the antis who are down on the books because the main characters wait for the ring before making love to each other. Now, I accept the fact that there are people for whom sex is no big deal, and consider it as ordinary as sneezing or eating. I am not one of them and it irritates me when people act like there is something wrong with you because you'd rather wait for the right person/wait for the ring. It's a very big deal for me, and I wish people would accept the fact that there are a number of people who think this way. And if there's a book where the characters wait for the ring, so be it. That's how the author told the story, and that's the way it is. If you'd rather read about urban fantasy with people jumping each other's bones at the drop of a hat, please go read Laurell K. Hamiliton's stuff.

I'm getting to the point where I'm almost embarrassed to be an anti...

*hugs* How sexuality is handled in Twilight is the least of my complaints with the series. I waited for the ring, too (six years, to be precise).
