I feel like I can relate to this, anon. At least partially.

Personally, I really like media that focuses on women and female experiences (with the caveat that it's at least decently well written, obviously). However, I sometimes have to kind of shove myself into just watching whatever it is, because before I actually watch it, my mind is always skeptical that I'm going to like it. Like my mind goes, "It's gonna be fluffy, it's gonna be dumb, maybe just watch something else."

Then again, I've been dithering on watching John Wick for aaages, even though people keep telling me it's actually pretty decent, because it just seems like SUCH a dude flick. So it does kind of go both ways, a little.

I guess the distinction is in where my brain tends to put the fulcrum for what comprises an all-audiences, not-particularly-gendered film. I'd say I do tend to think of something as a "chick flick" or "aimed at women" a lot more easily than I think of something as a "dude flick" or "aimed at men." Then I think about it and get mad, because fuck that "men's experience is the human experience; women's experience is women's experience" bullshit.
