I know a decent number of extremely intelligent, well-educated young women and teen girls that adore Twilight (and I happened to like the first book very much, myself - back when I thought the series was going in a different direction - thank you very much) and the tone of the condescension aimed at Twilight fans (as opposed to, say Stephen King's analysis of the series itself) reminds me of very much of the general condescension that adult readers of romance novels get, and I don't think that's a coincidence.
