K Tempest Tumbles

I'm K. Tempest Bradford, a writer, blogger, tech geek, and all around nerd. I'm such a big science fiction/fantasy/speculative fiction fan that I even write it (I know, pretty hard core!).

I have a non-Tumblr blog and that's where the majority of my long-form posts go. This blog is for my more fannish activities, link sharing, and squeeness.

I’m just getting caught up due to a mention on Twitter. I just poked my head into some Twilight tags and… well, if you need to laugh, the Twihards are losing their shit. Still, some stuff about this bothers me.

Kristen Stewart is caught “cheating” on Robert with a MARRIED man (the Snow White directer) yet she is the only one called out on it by fans? Typical misogynist bullshit, I know.

Doesn’t him being older and a director set off alarm bells and make anyone think that that there might have been some coercion here, and not from Kristen’s side? I could be wrong, she seems to be enjoying herself in the pics. Still…

I have no reason to defend the girl as I’m not a fan, but: come on, people. I find Rupert Sanders’ conduct WAY more suspicious.

I also find it highly ironic that Twilight fans — the people who find it dreamy and romantic for a man to stalk and abuse a woman — are so up in arms about this. No one who calls themselves a Twilight fan unironically is allowed to have anything to say to Kristen Stewart about her sexual conduct. EVER. (Not that anyone has a right in egneral, but Twihards especially need to take a damn seat and shut up.)

I can’t tell you why this specifically makes me so angry since I’m not a celebrity news follower or all that into Twilight. It’s just something about them jumping on the girl the way they do that suddenly has my hackles up.

Say what.

Is KStew even dating RPatz? 

And also

if SHE’S the one not married

and the guy she’s seeing is the one married

SHE’S the one under fire … why? 

Who

wha

I don’t understand

WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE SUCH WRONG PRIORITIES?

Because sexism.
