You have more questions (even though I highly doubt they are genuine questions), you get more answers.

1. No. Of course not. The Twilight Saga is not a parody or a fanfic.

2. Bella lets Edward (and Jacob too) get away with their crap because he is her eye-candy. Good-looking boys have it easy in this series.

3. Probably. She described Bella's looks, and most of Bella's traits matched Stephenie's.

4. Because Bella is a Mary-Sue and everyone loves her. Some of us readers know this Sue-ism the second we see it. The characters? Not so much.

And I'm pretty sure I have answered the rest already. =)
