The term "chick flick" is often used to undermine narratives that are led by female characters, which is not only reductive but also detrimental to the diversity of storytelling. It’s frustrating to see how, even in a modern context, media continues to reinforce patriarchal norms by assuming that stories about women lack substance or complexity.

The statistics provided on dialogue distribution between genders in films really drive home the point. It's time for us to recognize that women's experiences and stories are just as valuable and multi-dimensional as men's. Thank you for shedding light on this important issue!
