The whole antifeminist thing is completely ridiculous. I have read the series, and there is nothing demeaning to the female characters in the 3 books. Bella wanting to become a vampire like Edward has nothing to do with feminism, she only wants to spend th rest of eternity with him. I am positive that if she could do that without having to become a vampire, then she would. But that's not the case, so it's inevitable. Her wanting to change to be with him says nothing about feminism. It's something she wants and will do whatever she can to get it. But, I will give Meg Cabot that there may be only one thing antifeminist, and that's Bella damsel-in-distress appeal. Meyer protray's her like she can't help but hurt herself, but that's why having Edward as her "protector" fits in with the storyline.
