Movies that star and are about women are often called chick flicks. Men (or most likely teen male) movies are action and blood and mostly terrible. Count yourself lucky you are marginalized here.

Why is Julie and Julia a chickflick? Because it stars and is about women? Relegating movies by/for/and about women to the chickflick ghetto further marginalizes these projects. If women are expected to see and identify with the hundreds of movies that are released every year made by/for/about men, why shouldn't men relate to the ones by/for/about women? We are, after all, people, just like men. Ugh! Why is Julie and Julia a chickflick? Because it stars and is about women?
