People are passionate about defending their books that they love. I know that and I’ve done it. What’s really disturbing is when the users of Fanpop use this site to bring people down or just to openly hate.

Harry Potter and Twilight are going to be compared. No other two books have the same rabid following and they both have strong roots in the supernatural. I welcome debate and exchanging of opinions, when it’s friendly. Some of the comments I’ve seen on these forums could not be called friendly debate. It just makes me sick when I know that there are people out there that are willing to be so mean just based on the words of people we don’t even know. It’s not worth it to me to sacrifice the person that I want to be just to defend my book of choice.

I think this applies to Harry Potter fans as well as Twilight ones. In general, Twilight fans are the most verbal is expressing their love for the books. Most of the insane fan stories I hear are of Twilight fans, annd likewise most of the profane comments that I see are from them as well. But Harry Potter fans are just as able to do these things.

Even if you don't agree with me, thank you for reading this. Hopefully we can make Fanpop a better place.
