  • Entirely escapism, most romantic movies involve felonies lol.

    Stalking is the most popular, harassment, sexual harassment, assault, lack of consent.

    …. But it’s all portrayed as romantic. You want to talk about rape culture? The romance films are peak “rape culture”

    Twilight vampires secretly watching you sleep without your consent? Hawt! The guy refusing to take no for an answer? How devoted! The guy just grabbing you and kissing you out of nowhere? Swooooon! My ex inserting herself into my current relationship to wreck it and get back together with me? It MUST be true love. . I assure you, those things are unpleasant in real life, but I’m really curious as to how people think they’re romantic in movies. I don’t get it.
