Considering Twilight is a basic shojo manga trope--where the most handsome boys in school fall for the very common-looking girl protagonist. When it's reversed it's just a harem trope in Japanese shonen manga...

Imagine you're a straight horny man and two hot women crave your attention.

You don't identify with the actual main character of Twilight, you would if it was a boy.

That being said, that movie stays overhyped trash in my opinion.

I'm into anime and manga. This trope is overdone there, generally in harem stuff. In the US, maybe Betty and Veronica? I've never actually read or followed one, but that was my impression from Tvtropes.

Difference is that it would be pornography, as nature intended, rather than aimed at all ages while middle aged soccer moms masturbate with cucumbers in the mall theater.

Oddly specific, what have you seen?

I am down for this. I can’t wait to see the backlash.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This would never happen irl tho because gender norms which is why it would sell out as a movie almost immediately 😂

Also werewolves aren’t real

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Hmmm, still wouldn't do it for the majority of the male population. You'll need to make the fighting occur because neither of them wants to be saddled with the pathetic excuse for a craven coward that the 'prophetic hero' turned out to be, and they're being told they have to make the prophecy happen so the world could be saved. Then, over the course of the story, it turns out the werewolf girl has magical properties in her blood that allow the vampire chick to power up and defeat the BBEG. The twist? The powers in the blood only activate when she experiences the bond of human love from the pathetic hero they're now dragging towards destiny, so the two women folk monsters must team up to win the heart of said pathetic hero despite his raging craven fear of them. Obviously there will be a sensual scene of the vampire sucking blood from the werewolf.

Boom. I just wrote the next hollywood flick. Good thing the strike is over.

Disney would unironically hire you as a writer since they are 100% into the same type of bottom fetish shit that you are into.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Wtf is this shìt

Dude, keep your baby bottom fetish to yourself

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Actor's strike is still on.

Also, you need writing classes.

And to actually meet people. Stop listening to the Tate Bros.

Perfectly cromulent

The werewolf I understand entirely. They’re both awkward, horny kids trying to find their place. The century old vampire creeping on a teenager is where it gets weird.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

The werewolf "imprints" on Bella's unborn vampire baby later in the series, so fortunately the scales of creepiness end up balanced between Team Edward and Team Jacob.
