random thought while reading more Twilight...

So, I started reading the second part -- though I'm not that far along yet -- and I really don't get how this vampire reaction to blood is supposed to work. Apparently even a little blood, like from a paper cut, taxes their control, unless they have lots of practice like Carlisle. Okay, whatever.

But how does that work while they are in a school where half the students will bleed three to five days per month?? Granted, it's not a lot of blood, but more than from a paper cut, so they must smell that. And it's not like they growl a lot at random girls from what I gathered. Is this explained somewhere? Did I miss something? Does menstrual bloood smell icky? What? I don't get it.

::wipes brow:: Oh thank you! Yes, I strongly suspect that I don't want to know.

It's like the person on my flist who feels compelled to post links to the worst Torchwood fic she sees, y'know, the serious Lord King Bad fic with tough guys crying? And then I feel compelled to read it. And then I cry.
