Stephenie answers some questions.

What are your reactions to her answers to the FAQ's?

I guess she finally gives an answer to the pregnancy question with some detail. Is "—fluids closely related to seminal fluids still exist in male vampires, which carry genetic information and are capable of bonding with a human ovum" a better explanation for you?

7 enjoyed the bouquet.:

um, what I have to say contains expletives, but can be closely replicated in this:

"bs."

Jes said...

yes- my main prob with the whole thing is that it isn't described in detail in the book. I can take fiction as fiction- and weird stuff happens in fiction that doesn't happen in a world where vamps don't exist (that we know of)
SO- this should have been in the book- or in the previous books. I just don't understand how the Cullens where so in the dark.

alison said...

seriously, jes. shouldn't the cullens have warned eddie to whack off a bit before the honeymoon?

Jes said...

YES!!! you'd think he would have... especially after reading Midnight Sun- there so much pent up sexual frustration on his part.

I am glad that she gives a more thorough explanation, but it is still hard for me to believe that with Carlisle being a doctor for one (who, oh, in his spare times studies the genetics of vampires and werewolves) doesn't know, tell or inform his son that he actually has sperm. He knows that Edward is with Bella when she is a human. How does this subject not come up?!? How can he not think that babies are a possibility if he knows genetics? That might be what bothers me the most.

Jes said...

so true corinne.

LOL to be totally honest, in all book two of BD I was expecting Jacob to shout at Edward about birth control... never happened.(sigh)
And now that you mention it in-vitro research probably have been interesting to Carlisle
