I blame ever_neutral for the Bella comparison. The bad mental image of Damon being creepily and mystically impregnated by Katherine... just NO.
For the record, this is what she wrote:
Damon is pretty much the Bella Swan of the TVD universe--he was entirely willing to give up his life and humanity, and leave his family behind, for his abusive vampire girlfriend. Then he spends the next 145 years romanticising that abuse. It's really fascinating gender subversion.
My imagination did the rest. I need some brain bleach.
