I used to be a die-hard Twilight fan. (see my username. Damn I wish I'd chosen ANYTHING else sometimes.)
I still like the book in small doses now, and I even write fanfiction for it, but now I've looked critically at SMeyer's characters, and I think I realize what people are talking about when they say Bella 백조 is a Mary Sue.
As a person who has seen it from both sides, I'd like to say that maybe Twilight 팬 didn't see Bella like that to begin with because she has so many "flaws".
I'm not really a mega-supporter of Bella's neediness. And I even, admittedly, wonder why she took Edward back after New Moon. Normal people with lives and better things to do would say, "Hell no am I taking 당신 back. 당신 left me crying in a forest, and 당신 think I'll just come running back to you? 당신 wanna commit suicide, go right ahead while I get the popcorn."
I still like Twilight. But maybe Bella 백조 was kind of 2-Dimensional.

Excerpt:
What,then, is women's empowerment? Women's empowerment has five components:
women's sense of self-worth;
their right to have and to determine choices;
their right to have access to opportunities and resources;
their right to have the power to control their own lives, both within and outside the home;
and their ability to influence the direction of social change to create a 더 많이 just social and economic order, nationally and internationally.
