The Truth Behind Movies:
Some may ask, why is it that guys like action movies, and girls like romance? Of course many of you intelligent readers already know the answer to this.... It's all about ENVY. See, guys like the action because they say "I wish the whole world's future rest upon the skills of my trigger finger." Wanting to be able to do honorable deeds like saving women in distress, rescuing people of unspeakable value, and defending their honor and pride. Action actors don't have to look that nice.... Bulky enough to hold high powered weapons, and gentle enough to know when to save women, but there's nothing wrong with that. Romance envy is another story. Ever notice that both starring roles are picture-perfect couples? It's all about looks. Girls get into this more because they wanna be like the girl. (maybe not because of the looks) but because the H-O-T-T guy with (no time spent at a job) and all the sweet (fabricated) lingo spends $$ and unlimited time on the girl. (sure, that may be a bit selfish, but nothing too bad). But the envy turns to obsession, then the girl feels like she's alone and wanting in this world.... so they must go to another movie and see another romance so they can put themselves in the woman's shoes and think "yeah it can happen." I have no reason to pick on girls, I'm sure that some guys wish they were a guy in one of the romance movies..... but the fact that guys don't prefer romance suggests that guys envy pride and honor instead.
