I know several mothers who wouldn’t let their “tween” read the fourth in the series because of it’s graphic honeymoon scenes, but at least they were truly “honeymoon” scenes. I’ve read all four books and watched both movies, (we took my husband’s niece, who is 11 to New Moon - I had no interest the movie), and overall, considering the nature of the majority of movies out there, Edward is presented as a chaste “hero”.

My son (21) took his girlfriend to see it (she had read the books.) He said he had no interest in the movie, but it wasn’t as “bad” (i.e. boring) as he thought it would be.

I can see why girls and women like Edward. BTW, did you have to wait in line?

Edward is presented as a chaste “hero”.

edward died of the spanish influenza at the age of 17 in 1918. He is a product of the victorian time period and morals, despite being a vampire and immortal.
