I think that you could certainly make an egalitarian relationship exciting in fiction but the way that you do that would be to put other kinds of barriers in the way. I mean I guess you look at something like Romeo and Juliet was as an obvious example where Romeo and Juliet are, I guess, more or less socially equal although you know, as medieval man and woman not really... but still there's not quite the class element that there is in say Pride and Prejudice or in Twilight.

So, I've been reading the "Twilight" Saga, a series of vampire romance novels by someone called Stephenie Meyer, and I have just a couple thoughts. I know a lot has been said about "Twilight", but this is a complex work. There's depths to "Twilight" we as a society haven't even begun to explore.

A lot of people seem to be revisiting Twilight I've noticed [...] when we were teenagers it was like this cringe thing that you had to pretend not to like or whatever. And now I think a lot of women suddenly have this sense of actually being like other girls is not really the worst thing you can be, and so there's this like willingness to like engage with this stuff and just enjoy it this time.

So, instead of flicking the bean, maybe you write novels about thirsty vampires, or for that matter philosophical treatises about the will to power. Oh we'll to get to you.
