So red is for girls and green is for boys I guess?

I doubt I will care about anything today except the fact that Stephenie Meyer just released a gender-swapped AU of Twilight. Because WHAT.

I think she is going to pull it off and will change how the world thinks about gender roles in romance novels and yeah you know I'm bullshitting. The thing is, because of EL James, I do not seem to have any anger left toward Stephenie Meyer. So I find this very, very amusing. Also, as many people have already mentioned, I wonder how long until EL James writes a gender-swapped 50 Shades. A month maybe?

Wouldn't surprise me if the gender swapped certain happened. Christina Grey is so going to be a clueless top, though.

Well, Christian is a worse than clueless dom already.

I bet if James does a gender-swap, she'll name the "Christian" character "Stephenie." She named Christian after Stephenie's husband, after all. (If I were Stephenie Meyer I'd have taken out a restraining order.)

No judge would grant it, so long as the character could stay within the legal definitions of parody, I'm sure. Public figures and all that.

If she names a lead character Stephenie, with that spelling, it'll be a blatant giveaway. Not that the situation would be unclear even if she named her Stephanie.
