Why women are so attracted to vampires.

Guys, have you ever wondered why women are so attracted to vampires? Does your wife/girlfriend have a permanent, unrelenting crush on the undead?

Vampires have grabbed the attention of female fans worldwide. The vampire phenomenon has exploded with movies like Twilight and TV shows like True Blood and Vampire Diaries.

So exactly what is it that leaves women glued to the movie/TV screen wanting more? As a woman I will be covering my point of view on this matter. Guys stick around if you want to learn why vampires cast such a powerful spell on your lady.

Ladies, sound off! Do you agree with the points made in this article? Wanna add more reasons? Stop by the comments section and drop me a line.

The number one reason women are so attracted to vampires is the same reason they're attracted to Brad Pitt and David Beckham, they're smokin' hot! Let's face it, mostly all vampires women swoon after are drop dead gorgeous - pun intended. It's kind of an oxymoron to say "ugly vampire."

The chiseled faces and bodies of Edward Cullen, Eric Northman, and Damon Salvatore are proof. Why don't they pick regular looking guys to play vampires? Well, there's this whole thing around vampires according to mostly every vampire book i've read and movie i've watched where when men (and women) get turned into vampires their looks change from average to holy crap.

While some vampires maintain dangerously hot looks but can still pass for super hot guys with beating hearts, some vampires attain even more spectacular changes to their looks. Take Edward Cullen for example, his skin glitters when he steps into the sunlight. It freaking glitters. You know how much women love anything that sparkles, at least I do. A glittery mega hot vampire boyfriend? I'll take two.

While vampires are pretty much killing machines, most of them have been around for centuries. That means that they still remember what made women blush back in the 1900s and guess what? It still makes us blush today.

Women love to be treated with respect in case you didn't know. Seriously what planet are you living on? But seriously, vampires know how to pull off their charm like you wouldn't imagine. In most cases the way they speak still has traces of the proper way men used to talk. They usually don't go around sayin' "Waddup dawg? And "I ain't gonna go to no damn art exhibition." Now, i'm not saying that vampires love to go to the museum, i'm just giving an example that they tend to use full words in their sentences and use proper grammar.

I'm serious, good grammar's totally H-O-T.

When they're not busy killing people or drinking their blood or glamouring unsuspecting victims, vampires say the most romantic things. And here's why it's not cheesy..... Because they mean it. (Oh and because they didn't steal it from a movie, they came up with it on their own.)

"Before you Bella, my life was like a moonless night." Edward Cullen, Twilight

Vampires also tend to need an invitation to come into a house, they can't just barge in. There's something endearing about having to ask a guy/vampire/man "Would you like to come in?"

"You have to invite me in. Otherwise, it's physically impossible for me to enter a mortal's home." Bill Compton, True Blood.

Vampires are extremely strong and fast. They can lift a tree trunk with one hand, they can stop a car from running their clumsy girlfriend over with their bare hands. And they can get where they need to go with lightning fast speed. Vampire's girlfriend in trouble? Not to worry before she can let out an exasperated cry for help he's by your side saving the day.

Women like to feel protected, at least I do. I mean i'm a modern woman and i'm not saying I go around needing a man in my life to fix everything for me, I can take care of everything myself but it's somehow so reassuring and comforting to know your boyfriend is the strongest being you know and that he'll be there to protect you no matter what, should you need help.

Another thing a vampire can do with his super strength, carry his lovely girlfriend for hours at a time if necessary without breaking a sweat or messing up that gorgeous hair. That's something I'd definitely look forward to if I had a vampire Beau*wink*

Vampires are beasts when it comes to making love. At least that's what I've heard/seen/read. Obviously this reason carries some major weight when it comes to women going crazy over vamps. (Maybe I should have made this my number one reason???)

According to some of the hottest vampire books and shows, being made love to by a vampire is intense. It's passionate, all consuming, hot, burning, carnal, lust. A vampire's strength, passion, and fangs play major roles during sex. Vampire sex often leaves women with bruises, bites and soreness.

There's also blood exchange during sex with a vampire. Vampires bite their partner to feed on their blood and then reciprocate and let their partner drink their blood. Sex and feeding go hand in hand (or fang in fang ha!) for a vampire. It's that feeling also of being so wanted for with so much thirst, passion and hunger that makes women weak in the knees.

All these things make women daydream of making love with a vampire because that feeling of being so desired and so wanted with that burning lust is just unbelievable. It makes a woman think "I wish that was me."

Vampires "live" forever, if they're careful and stay away from the sun and stakes anyway..... When a vampire says "I'm gonna love you forever, every single day of forever" he's not bluffing, he really means it.

It's a powerful thing to know that you have been picked to be loved forever, for eternity.

The prospect of being turned into a vampire is appealing to many women (including myself. Yeah I said it.) It's something scary, the thought of living forever, but it's worth it if you get to spend eternity with a gorgeous vampire stud.

It's fiction. It's not real. It's a fantasy. And you know what? People always want what they can't have. That's the biggest reason vampires are so appealing, because it's something we can't have, that doesn't exist.

If you're a man reading this and wanna take a few tips away from this article, by all means, be more romantic, courteous, and passionate. You don't need fangs to seduce a lady by treating her with respect (and passion, passion is key remember)

Ladies if you've read this article tell me what do you think? Did I nail (stake?) every possible reason for wanting to be with a vampire??

One more thing, this article highlights my own personal opinions on why women like vampires. It does not mean every woman likes vampires. This article was written for those of us that do. Cheers.
