Once upon a time there was a land called "Far,Far Away", and there lived a prince. Even in his infancy the King and Queen recognized their son’s appeal, so they decided to name him Prince Charming. As the prince grew up, his royal parents breathed a sigh of relief because they knew he would live up to his name. They later admitted, “We took a bit of a chance. Thank God he turned out the way he did. It would have been pretty embarrassing to have an ugly, socially awkward son named Prince Charming.”When the prince wasn’t making royal appearances at balls or waving to peasants from atop his white horse, he enjoyed acting in local plays. He had managed to get some bit parts with the Brothers Grimm, but didn’t rise to true stardom until Walt Disney discovered him in 1937 and cast him in their classic movieSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Even though he was only referred to as “the prince” in the credits, he was still pretty psyched to star in his first feature film. He had girls of all ages, and even a few of their mothers, swooning over him and singing, “Someday my prince will come…”
Thirteen years later (though amazingly enough, he looked like hadn’t aged at all), Walt Disney finally gave Prince Charming the credit he deserved in the movie Cinderella. He friends could no longer tease him about being cast as the generic prince because his name was right there in black and white. After that, he was a household name and the source of many women’s fantasies. Female peasants mobbed him every time he left the castle, and he was getting more princess ass than he knew what to do with.
Though far more sulky and sparkly than his royal ancestor, he still manages to score big with the ladies. It seems women love him despite his overly protective, often controlling behavior, and his prudish, old-fashioned ideals in the bedroom. They don’t even seem to mind the fact that he’s about as cuddly as Michelangelo’s David. Edward not only sweeps girls off their feet, he also carries them high into treetops and races with them through dense forests. Holy crap, you should see him run – Usain Bolt has got nothin’ on this guy! And much like his charming predecessor, he’s got the saving damsels in distress gig down pat. He’s definitely the guy you want to have around if you ever find yourself surrounded by a pack of drunken townies in a dark alley. Although girls should be warned that he has a bit of a temper (especially around gorgeous werewolves), and occasionally gets the maddening urge to drink your blood. But other than that, he’s usually the picture of chivalry and self-restraint
And this bright several generation post grandson of prince charming has set the epic record of receiving most number of female heartthrobs, specially the teenagers..They do not know why they are entranced. They only know how. And this according to critics and psycologist," When she reads Twilight, she is sucking up a complex maelstrom of psychosexual metaphor, and all before lunch." Goodbye Famous Five and Timmy, you horrid little dog. Goodbye Harry Potter and your dull suburban wand. You are a 20th-century, one-dimensional metaphor of a character. We have outgrown you.Edward Cullen is the lover the young girl desires and fears. "The vampire is a metaphor for the predatory yet alluring boy,", the young girl wants to be chased and predated, But the young girl also wants to save the vampire; to rescue him from his lonely eternity. He is a photogenic monster with good hygiene. "To be a vampire is a very sad fate,and this brings out the desire to nurture and protect him. They just want to suck on our blood. This is a metaphor for how much we need love and how much we need to be needed. We see our own vulnerabilities in them."
In the fourth Twilight novel, Breaking Dawn, Bella becomes a powerful vampire; she finds her fangs and loves them. This happens in Bram Stoker's Dracula, too, to Lucy Westenra. "Lucy is initially a tender virgin but once she has been bitten, she becomes a violent virago stalking cemeteries looking for children to sink her fangs into," . When reading vampire fiction, the teenager is "confronting an image of her own inadmissible desires. She is staring into a dark mirror."
In the end, becoming a vampire allows the teenager to experience power. "Vampire genre allows the protagonist to be both the author of her own destiny and the victim of forces beyond her control. It allows women to have it both ways – strong and vulnerable to the darker forces."
So there you have it – Twilight. No doubt it has much more emotional depth than Harry Potter. So, no wonder they love it and are longing for more.
