Robert Pattinson is really not a fan of Twilight



source

Everyone creams Kristen for not being "grateful," even though she constantly defends the franchise, but it's apparently okay for a man to say whatever he wants, criticize and mock the franchise without judgment. I say this as someone who is not a fan of any of this twilight stuff.  I just can't turn a blind eye to the obvious double standard even if their personalities aren't parallel.  

Men get away with so much.  The only get called out if they do really extreme things like cheat on their wives with 18 other women, or get arrested for beating a woman up.

And also Megan Fox got blasted for the shit she talked about Transformers... Shia made critical comments about Transformers as well as other films he was on and walked away scott free.

I think part of the reason people find Rob's bashing of Twilight more endearing to Kristen's reluctance is that he seems to have a sense of humor about it. Also may be due to the fact he's got nads.

This.

His method of his delivery is different.

Rob actually answers what most of us are thinking, "Are you doing this for real?" (I find it refreshing that he totally ignores the party line)

He's taking the piss out of himself, like...I know how absurd this. Look at my life, look at my choices.

Also, he throws shade.

But if she were also delivering little barbs, she'd get it much worse.

(I always figured they got together because they each hated it SO much...and that's a pretty unique place to be with someone)

He has a personality. She doesn't. The end.

I also think it's partly due to the fact that Rob recognizes and bashes the franchise for what it is, whereas Kristen attacked the fans.

He's always good to his fans - and that's the most important thing imo. People getting pissed that he makes a lot of money need to get off their high horse imo
