Hi, I'm Hannah, and I love rom-coms! They're swoony, funny, and offer wish fulfillment for romance that we don't always see in everyday life.
I grew up in the rom-com era, and I find it super nostalgic to go back and watch my fave rom-coms from the 2000s β as well as older classics from the '80s and '90s. But...sometimes they don't exactly hold up.
Here are 22 rom-com scenes that are misogynistic, predatory, homophobic, and overall pretty darn offensive.
WARNING: Some of the scenes mention rape and sexual assault.
