It’s the valentine’s special! Part 2 is coming to a screen near you next week 💕
Rom coms are my escape, I love a good cheesy movie, people falling in love in a beautiful setting and all the big gestures, but the problem is, there’s an underlying issue to most of these. Whether its overt or covert, the misogyny is real, and I wanted to have a chat to you about it. Do I watch too many rom coms? Possibly, but if I didn’t I wouldn’t be so well versed in this topic.
