Why do people care about the British royalty?

I can’t fathom why people (mostly women) are so enthralled by them. They do nothing and are essentially just expensive remnants of history.

You come off as someone who they once owned.
Pretty impressive how they made most of the world their bitch for so long. Gotta respect that.
ETA: 27 downvotes and no replies. I mentally own these downvoting bitches like I should be wearing the crown. Stay quiet my peons.

More importantly, why do people care about people who care about the British royalty?

Based on the things that interest the average American woman, it surprises you that many of them are interested in the happenings of British royalty?

I don't give a crap what they do, but my wife does and it entertains her. My wife doesn't give a crap about baseball, but I do and it entertains me.

girls want to be princesses and be waited on. It's pretty much porn for women.

Why do people watch real housewives of Atlanta?

I don’t get it either. British royalty hasn’t meant a damn thing for over a hundred years easily.

Do you know how much money the monarchy generates every year through tourism?

But pay them less for doing less than men and they get in a fricking uproar.

They're the biggest celebrities to people in the UK, and that I can understand (sort of).
But for people in the States I find it bizarre. I don't care when they have babies or get married. I barely care when people I know have babies or get married.

This is what I was going to post. The royals are just another reality show.
At least the royals do a lot with charity.

This. You don't even need a tour guide or booklet to see the sights in Westminster. Just follow the Japanese tourists with cameras from the Thames to Buckingham Palace and you'll see all things Royal and Parliamentary.

I agree. They don't even have their own reality shows like the Kardashian Family

What I don't get is why people care anything at all about celebrities. At least the royal family is an important part of British history. I'd be more interested in sitting down for a chat with Queen Elizabeth than I would be with any American actor or pop star.

Why the frick do I spend money to have 1,357 different color lures of the same plastic worm when I ever only throw 3 colors?
Because I am an irrational human obsessed with fishing

In my western Civ class, I teach my students about Henry VIII and Louis XIV and XVI, the Tsar's etc. and prety much how they are all related in one way or another. Pretty much after my class, they think the royals come from Alabama and all married their sisters and cousins.
