explain "chick-flicks"


Question Posted Tuesday March 13 2007, 2:35 pm

how do you explain what's so appealing about chick-flicks to a guy who really doesn't get it? I would particurarly like to explain why people like the typical best sellers like THE NOTEBOOK, GREASE, DIRT DANICNG, PRETTY WOMAN, TITANIC.. and so on.. cause whenever he asks "why do you like that stupid movie" i say "because i do, its awesome, i enjoy watching it" and he says "thats not good enough, you have to give me a good motivation for hy you like every single one of those movies."

So pretty much - how do you convince a chick-flick-hater by using like one sentence? what can be a good reason for liking chic-flicks?

women like love stories because it's normally what they want in a relationship. sometimes girls just like to only deal with girl problems and experiences. for example, i have more guy friends than girl friends and normally we all hang out together but the guys always are loud and are chaotic so occasionally and very rarely we have a girls night out, where we get together and watch chick flicks and bake, all those things guys dont like to do. so i think girls like chick flicks because we like to connect with our own gender. there's been studies done on this. girls are happiest when they're around their own kind.

personally, i think it's because girls are more attracted to love stories, and that's what chick flicks are.

and only real men watch chick flicks with their girls =)

hope i helped!

Not everyone's gonna like every movie genre.


But I (along with many others, no doubt) enjoy watching them because they're not gory and violent, and have a gorgeous leading man like Leonardo DiCaprio. Many of us wish to be in a situation like the one one portrayed in the movie.


Titanic, especially, minus the whole love-of-your-life-dying and falling-off-an-ocean-liner thing.


As for one sentence? It could be a rather long one, and depend on if you're a girl or guy.
Girl:
"Because Leonardo DiCaprio is cuter than your FACE!" (which is probably true, too)
Guy:
"Because I watch them with my girlfriend and have two hours of time laying with her on the couch"


:)
