An aging population of women who were fed fantasies of desire and romance by Hollywood male leads are now seeing that American Movie Channel and the media moguls, who have controlled what and how we view “romance” or “love”, has finally become a call to arms for a new generation of wise women. We are pulling the curtain back to reveal a wider point of view: one that dispels the myth that learning about love through soap operas and Hollywood romance movies is a lot like learning about “Art” from an out-of -date, poorly reproduced art history book.
