Big Lie

I think its obvious that the "big lie" is that the majority of films and novels present the idea of the perfect guy and that women find them then have a happy ending. It's that exact idea that draws women into a good romance book or movie, to see it happen fictionally if it hasn't already happened in their own lives. Not to say that all women are unhappy or single, but regardless of relationship status I think most women are drawn to romance in general. The issue with this is that the way hollywood constructs this idea very typically and is not always true to reality. But then again without the general aspects of what is involved in a romantic novel or film, it can't be catergorized under that genre.
