However, asserting that "only a woman could dream this up" is factually incorrect, and although it would be a vaguely nasty thing to say (and only ARGUABLY misogynist) if true, the fact that it is NOT true speaks volumes about your own preconceptions as to the kind of material women write and think about. <BR/><BR/>While many of your points are valid as to the kind of created societal preconceptions which drive the bullshit marketed to women, please don't make the lazy assumption that men aren't equally (in this case, more) responsible for the problem, either because they buy the myth too or (perhaps more likely) the fact that cynical manipulation drives this more than one squishy weak-minded woman writing to other squishy weak-minded women. Such an assumption drives articles/discourse declaring women "just plain dumb" (like the recent WA Post article that caused so much controversy), something which I think is pretty offensive.<BR/><BR/>IMDB entry: <BR/><BR/>Writing credits(WGA) <BR/>Adam Sztykiel (screenplay) and <BR/>Deborah Kaplan (screenplay) & <BR/>Harry Elfont (screenplay)<BR/><BR/> <BR/>Adam Sztykiel (story)Georgianoreply@blogger.com
