Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I see I'm not the only one to think of that!. It's a plot hole and it happens to be my favorite example of plot holes in Twilight!. It would be impossible for Edward to get Bella pregnant if he can't get hard, and since he can't get hard, it's impossible!. Men need blood in their veins to rush down to their netherlands in order for them to get hard, and they can't ejaculate without blood!.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who as a dirty mind on this forum!. You just made my day!Www@QuestionHome@Com

You know, I wondered the same thing when I was reading!. We know that the vampires' hearts don't beat, so it's not possible for him to get an erection, right!?
Well, anyway, at least you know you're not the only one that thought about Edward Cullen's erection!. :-PWww@QuestionHome@Com

lol I'm not sure!. but in some other vampire novels the man has to 'feed' first!. but then ya gotta think if vampires have lower than normal body temp the sperm couldn't survive!. wow that's a head scratcher!. I'm gonna have to get to that book quicklyWww@QuestionHome@Com

it's a book!. it's all fake!. they can live forever!.!.!.doesnt that make you wonder!? I know you dont think it's real!.!.!.i just think it's funny!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i was wondering that too because it says when you become a vampire all of the liquids in your body freeze because of the venom!.!.!.!.
so how does she get pregnant if his insides are frozen!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Okaaayyy!.!.!.!.!.!.

so I love him too, but that's kinda wierd!Www@QuestionHome@Com

stephenie meyer has the offical explanation on her website:

Now, on to the "how is this possible!?" question!. First of all, of course it's not possible!. None of this story is possible!. It's a fantasy story about creatures that don't actually exist!. Within the context of the fantasy, however, this is how it works:

Vampires are physically similar enough to their human origins to pass as humans under some circumstances (like cloudy days)!. There are many basic differences!. They appear to have skin like ours, albeit very fair skin!. The skin serves the same general purpose of protecting the body!. However, the cells that make up their skin are not pliant like our cells, they are hard and reflective like crystal!. A fluid similar to the venom in their mouths works as a lubricant between the cells, which makes movement possible (note: this fluid is very flammable)!. A fluid similar to the same venom lubricates their eyes so that their eyes can move easily in their sockets!. (However, they don't produce tears because tears exist to protect the eye from damage, and nothing is going to be able to scratch a vampire's eye!.) The lubricant-venom in the eyes and skin is not able to infect a human the way saliva-venom can!. Similarly, throughout the vampire's body are many versions of venom-based fluids that retain a marked resemblance to the fluid that was replaced, and function in much the same way and toward the same purpose!. Though there is no venom replacement that works precisely like blood, many of the functions of blood are carried on in some form!. also, the nervous system runs in a slightly different but heightened way!. Some involuntary reactions, like breathing, continue (in that specific example because vampires use the scents in the air much more than we do, rather than out of a need for oxygen)!. Other involuntary reactions, like blinking, don't exist because there is no purpose for them!. The normal reactions of arousal are still present in vampires, made possible by venom-related fluids that cause tissues to react similarly as they do to an influx of blood!. Like with vampire skin—which looks similar to human skin and has the same basic function—fluids closely related to seminal fluids still exist in male vampires, which carry genetic information and are capable of bonding with a human ovum!. This was not a known fact in the vampire world (outside of Joham's personal experimenting) before Nessie, because it's nearly impossible for a vampire to be that near a human and not kill her!.


but personaly in stephenie meyers world that she created i dont think it should be possiable it doesnt make sense to me!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
