Oh that article is right on! I usually don’t articulate why I avoid “chick flicks” and tv shows that other females seem drawn to but that is it exactly. I hate being emotionally manipulated and I feel that that is exactly what most romances are attempting to do– and I have seen what that discontent that evolves from being drawn in and allowing your mind to focus on the romance can do to a marriage and ones own contentedness. No thank you.

Remember Bridges of Madison County by Robert J. Waller (I think that’s the author’s name)? Reading that book so many years ago was my first experience with fictional romance that was accepted by many people who cry foul over “traditional” porn. It amazed me how quickly I fell into sympathy with the leading characters who were not acting in a Christ-like manner. Very much the emotional fix.
