REAL Men Don't Sparkle.

I hate Edward Cullen.
He wears turtleneck sweaters, for crying out loud!

Who is your idea of a real(fictional) man?

For me its Ron Weasley, he is . . . amazing.

Fred and George are real men.

As are James, Sirius and Lupin.

In addition to the turtlenecks, he has a beige leather jacket.
Come on, if a vampire is going to wear a leather jacket is must be black.

Johnny Cash is definitley a real man, as are John Wayne and Clint Eastwood, and quite a few other cowboy - types.

Indiana Jones is, and Rocky/Rambo is (not so much Sylvester Stallone, due to the amount of cosmetic surgery).

Earl on My Name is Earl! Also Frank. And Randy!

And Kenny is also a real man, and Teddy DuChamp and Chris Chambers. And John Green!

Anyway, a real man would be Ender Wiggin.; ▶ Reply to This

Those are just who I consider to be real men.
I'm just a bit of a Potter obsessive :); ▶ Reply to This

The reason I hate Eddiekins isn't that he sparkles, I just consider that ludicrous.
The reasons I do hate him are that:
A. He is at least a borderline, if not full-blown, abusive boyfriend. Taking apart her truck so that she can't go hang out with her other friends, having his sister "kidnap" her, and the like.
B. There is no personality. There is no character development. He is just perfect, marble, BEAUTIFUL, and sensitive.
C. We get that he's pretty, SMeyer. No need to repeat that every time darling Bella touches, smells, sees, or otherwise comes in contact with him.
D. And some more reasons, I haven't ranted against Twilight in a while. I'm a bit rusty, sorry.

Also: Come on, don't hate on the turtlenecks! And yeah, I second that Ender Wiggin.; ▶ Reply to This

But I do hate turtleneck sweaters. On anyone.; ▶ Reply to This
