Heigl’s in a RomCom?

Check out Shakesville for a discussion of the increasing number of embarrassing romantic comedies that continue to rehash the same stereotypical anti-woman crap Hollywood’s been dishing out for … ever?

This film would have us believe “the ugly truth” is that women love with their crazy little emotional centers and men love with their rascally cocks. But the real ugly truth is that there are people who treat that shit as actual fact—and the even uglier truth is that there are people who will pay good money to see this film because they find it “so true!”

  1. Katherine Heigl is endlessly disappointing. As is Hollywood. As long as this idea is perpetuated as some kind of truth (ha ha, it’s so true!), people just have the excuse to keep acting that way. Especially men; if we forgive them–by accepting as true–the notion that they love, much less think, with that “other head,” why would they feel pressure to break away from that stereotype?
