It has been said by more than one professional in the literary sense (Stephen King, to name one) that Twilight allows young girls to experience love and sex in not a very sexual manner. To put it bluntly, when Edward so much as touches Bella the description the latter gives of that feeling is like porn. So simple face touching becomes 'face porn' in Twilight.

Sex is never directly adressed, not even in Breaking Dawn when Bella becomes pregnant. It is however heavily implied that there is sex, and that there is a lot of it. But young girls don't have to experience things they are, according to Stephenie Meyer and her brother Seth Morgan, "not ready for", i.e. sexual education or "that which significantly decreases the amount of teenage pregnancies". (Isn't it therefore kind of ironic that Bella got married and had a child at 18 years of age?)
