Did you ever notice that the biggest Block Buster Chick Flicks in history are all about

women cheating ?
Bridges of Madison County:
Her "Good Man" husband is away with the kids at the State Fair.
While he's gone she decides to bang the National Geographic photographer that asked for directions.
She almost abandons her husband and kids to run off with the stranger.
And women thought this was romantic,
Titanic, same thing.
Notebook, same thing.
And yet men still walk around totally clueless regarding female nature.

We in the ai era and somehow auto-correct still sucks.
Deal with this shite every day. Fixing back shite that autocorrect auto-fricked up.
They intentionally got it to where autocorrect intentionally fricks something up and you have to go fix it. Which means they got you training their AI for free.
Probably been going on for about 2-years or so. Happens across all platforms and has gotten worse in the past year.
Auto correct went from pretty accurate to less accurate today.

So instead of fixing the spelling like it supposed to. It autocorrects to a completely different word.
The tech companies are Tom Sawyer, and we are the kids painting away at the fence of training their AI model.

Was the Notebook about infidelity? I don’t recall that. I thought the James Garner character was reading their love story to his long time wife who had dementia.

I just asked my wife and she said no. Then she thought about it longer and said oh yea she did cheat but she loved the guy she cheated with. So I guess that makes it ok? Haha

There is no clear metric in the three films you've chosen. Like, at all.
Here are some that are bigger than Bridges and The Notebook (obviously, Titanic is not a biggest chick flick ever, it is a biggest movie ever) that don't center a cheating protagonist:
The Devil Wears Prada
Bridesmaids
Mean Girls
Barbie
Mamma Mia
Twilight
Gone with the Wind
Pretty Woman
Love Actually (not the women cheating)
Bridget Jones
He's Just not that into You (again, not the women)
So, yeah. Cherry picking three films from three different sub-genres, with two of them not being representative samples of "biggest", makes for a pretty garbage case study.

There is plenty of good evidence that, throughout history, there is about a 10% false paternity rate.
You do the math.
You do the math.

The "cheating" that is most despicable in the movie is Rose cheating on her family that she created with her husband after the Titanic. She shite on her husband and kids by throwing a priceless necklace into the ocean as a tribute to a guy she knew for a few days.

Didn’t Anne Hathaway cheat on Vinnie Chase in The Devil Wears Prada? This is probably the only chick flick that was legitimately good.

And “Gone With The Wind”? Since it’s on the list though, Scarlet tried to cheat with that Ashley sissy the entire movie.

Ever notice how many books and movies aimed at women are a woman deciding between a rich guy and a rebel/bad boy?

Rose's mom was broke. So it was either suck Billy Zane's dick for a first class life or go work in a sewing factory as an indentured slave. And Zane only started treating her like shite when it became very obvious to him she was going to diddle Jack.
As uje, women can be wreckless AF and the women fawn over their depravity.

GWTW is about Scarlett chasing a guy for years, regardless of who she was married to, to the point where Rhett tells her, in parlance of the day, to frick off.
Not necessarily about CHEATING but not for a lack of wanting by Scarlett.

Rose cheated worse than that. She survived the Titanic, lived a long, full life with a man who loved her. Had kids and grandkids and when she died, her version of happily ever after was not being with her husband of many years. It was the homeless dreg she knew for a couple of days.
