It's hilarious, because surely Meyer had no idea what she was writing. XD Although I find myself thinking of Spoony's review of New Moon, in which he points out that the whole werewolf thing is possibly the sneakiest representation of homosexuality he'd ever seen (Bella telling Jacob to try not being a werewolf, him saying "You don't understand", etc). He said that apparently Meyer understands homosexuals surprisingly well, although I suspect it's more that Chris Weitz does. XD
