Like think about most movies aimed at ladies. With a romance plot. The guys are are just horrible people.
Twilight we have a dude that is like 100 and he is creeping on a 17 year old. Followers her around and even do stuff like watches her sleep.
Klyo Ren from Star Wars. He tries to the Kill Rey a number of times . Mind rapes her. Gas lights her and he has a cult following that think him kidnapping her and making her cry is "horny".
I love Tom Hanks. HOWEVER in You got Mail he ran the lady out of Business. And then he was like take this nook of my building.
50 Shades of guy .. I don't even think I have to talk about that.
And Rom-Com in generals. That have a girl say no, and the dude does shit to try to win her over. They play it off as cute, but if you don't look like hue Grant she is calling the police on you if you do that in real life.
It just so odd. People talk about toxic male behavior that is built up by movies and they look at action movies, and anime ( my first love), but honestly the worst aspects of toxic masculinity are found in promgrams ladies love.

In fiction, it's interesting when love blossoms between two contrasting characters. That way you get a lot of conflict and conflict is ultimately the most interesting part of a story. You want to see that conflict resolved. I do agree, a lot of the time they would be toxic relationships that could never or should never last, but that is part of the fantasy element-- being able to resolve any obstacle in the pursuit of a "pure" goal, like love. Love conquers all and can soften even the hardest of hearts. In reality, we know this doesn't work. Well, most of us do. Some of us are mired in fantasy. Nonetheless, they are not meant as moral lessons; they're meant as an expression of what we want and the struggle to achieve it. Solidarity and compassion for each other. But if you take it at face value, sure, a lot of it sends a very negative message about relationships and love.

To be fair, dont you think a vampire would be attracted to people of the age he appears to be? Not like he's going to hang out at the old folks home looking like he's 20.

It’s too bad more women don’t think like this. You are spot on about how Hollywood and the entertainment industry romanticize “bad boys” and send the message that that’s who girls should be attracted to, while nice, quiet guys are portrayed as creeps and losers. Extroverts control society and send the messages that introverts are trash.

I need lighthearted stuff the closer I get to Christmas. |

Aren't you basically stating that too many people can't think for themselves?
