Since the beginning of cinema, romantic films have been very loved, mainly by women. Today, when a new romantic comedy or drama hits theaters, it’s the perfect excuse for a ladies’ night out. Many men (and even some women) have wondered what it is about this genre of movies that attracts women. Here are 5 reasons why women love romantic movies.
Women love to be in touch with their emotions
Women are emotional beings, and not only do they have no problem showing their emotions, but many don’t care that those emotions are drawn from them. Sometimes it just feels good to laugh out loud or let the tears flow as you watch others go through the ebb and flow of finding love, falling in love, and losing love.
Women prefer to watch rather than read romance
Well, this is not true for all women (but which statement is?). However, with the hustle and bustle of most women’s daily lives, many would rather watch romantic movies than read romance novels. It is less time consuming, equally entertaining – or more for some – and equally stimulates emotions.
Women love to use romantic movies to hint at men
Women love to watch romantic movies to give the men in their lives clues about what he should or should not do in their relationship. Some women watch movies alone while taking notes or with their guy and have him take notes. Yes, a woman wants a man to chase her when she storms out after a fight, serenade her from under her bedroom window, and of course whisper sweet movie lines in her ear that give her some seriousness to the classic “You Complete Me” by Tom Cruise. competence.
Women relate to characters or plot
Some romantic movies are just cheesy, and women may like them too, but some women love more realistic movies, which they can painfully identify with. Usually, stories of lost love and young love stir emotions in women and evoke old memories, but women can appreciate the way the movie made them feel and even enjoy the memories.
Women want to be the characters and live the plot
So what is the number one reason why most women love romantic movies? The Fantasy, of course! The happy ending is what every woman wants and few get to live in real life. It’s a nice escape from the reality of real life relationships for 90 minutes!
