Sure, the Twilight series is Meyer's wank fantasy at its core, and if it had ended there, no one would have cared. But this series (not calling it a saga) has been published and distributed to millions of people, topped bestseller lists and been lauded as a gem of YA literature. If it wants to pass itself off as legitimate literature, it can be analysed and criticised like legitimate literature.

People have taken away lots of things from these books, and a lot of them aren't the kind of things Meyer intended, but this is a woman who's flat out admitted that she doesn't think about what she's writing (at times not even understanding what she's writing) and thus writes works rife with these unfortunate implications. Can the reader be blamed for that?

Besides, the hypercritical, the cynical, and the nitpicky can be found in every fanbase. They may not always be welcome, but they're there.
