Lara Jean's Reference
I think rom coms are guilty pleasures belonging to those who refuse to admit that anything sappy is the truth. I was called a romantic once because I wrote poetry and letters when they were considered too vintage- similarly to a Hollywood trope or black and white fantasy, and yet elementary. But I realized that many of us who may have a distant relationship with words or poetic thoughts would rather not tippy-toe on views about love or lover's language. So we associate rom coms to the feminine's journey; a chick-flick and any man in the film must be a beast to his beauty or a church-like boy who's connected to spiritual love making him another type of poet—one where his heart is already open.

The Power Dynamics
There are women who love the women, but love the men more. They seem consoling and balletic, but are mask-less spectators proffering a speech about a pseudo notion of love towards women, while honoring men who cross-question the necessities of the same women they will forever claim they love. These women will conceal their emotions indicating any support for the woman with a past and a confession. Her confessions lie within the constructs of being believed and being somewhat forgiven by the women who needed her to retire from stories of abuse.
