Woah woah hold up. Doesn't "the notebook" justify cheating?

posted this today in the gem thread

Men we have to realize also th magnitude of the heroism of women who leave their decent but dull husbands and boyfriends. It's an insidious message repeated in essays and in movies for women of a certain age. Ever notice how in movies about men who cheat on their wife's the male leads are dudes who must be punished with death or with a rabbit boiling on the stove ( fatal attraction, basic instinct, cape dear, American beauty, what lies beneath, any Tyler perry movie)

Whereas in movies about women who cheat on their now boring husbands boyfriends or fiancée, te female leads are somehow morally innocent while they allow themselves o be swooningly swept off their feet by a more exciting man, and of there husbands or boyfriends find out and dare get jealous they are the bad guys who must be punished( bride wars, notebook, English patient, titanic, perfect murder, bridges of Madison county)

Reincar has a thread in The Arcadium about this

i did

http://www.the-coli.com/arcadium/9107-i-still-find-titanic-notebook-offensive.html


here'es my notebook post




The notebook - another :childplease: movie

this chick had a two month fling at like age 16, brehs me and you know Exactly that women toss dudes aside and get on with their life and dont even think of them again, who here is with a girl they were with at 16? who? exactly

so we are really supposed to believe a chick who was just dating ryan gosling did not even go beyond the honeymoon period is going to run back to him ten years later when she is engaged to a rich man? yeah right.

anyone notice how her fiance is also portrayed as a bad man? like he was standing in the way of a beautiful love story :childplease:, this man wasted years on this chick built up her self esteem, loved her with all her heart, even allowed her to go back to her hometown and see her ex (simp), only to get cheated on and portrayed as the guy who was standing in the way of her following her heart :childplease:

another honourable man who was faithful, who loved his woman, treated her with respect yet gets played and all these chicks can think about is ":follow your heart", the end justifies the means

women love this scene



"i waited for you for seven years, now its to late"

aka i waited for you now im engaged its to late

5 seconds later cheating on her faithful fiance :smugsabo:, im sure not one female watching that was thinking damn at this slut shes engaged, nah they were crying omg so romantic, not me i was there with the :childplease: look at this gawt damn whore cheating on her man

after this she dumps her man and runs to ryan gosling they get married and have kids, then we are supposed to feel sorry when she is reaping what she sowed as she loses her memory nah not me
