I... this is wonderful! :)
I will admit that I used to be one of the people who, because it was what I knew, scoffed at romance novels. I was also a child raised on Disney Princess movies.
Once I grew into a hopeless romantic and realized just how, well, awesome romance novels and their associated heroines were, I laughed in the face of the "those kind of books" label and have yet to turn back.
This video was incredibly informational and downright awesome. :D
Thank you for creating it.

I'm a 52-year-old male, remaining virgin until marriage. Is there a romance novel where I find the love of my life before growing too decrepit and we get married and live happily ever after?

Love this! It is utterly amazing how romance novels are STILL something to be ashamed of reading even today. IMHO, the main reason that e-readers have become so popular is so that people can read what the heck they want to without being condemned for it. Wish more people would take a stand for the Happily Ever After!
