It is not a question of if girls under 18 are stupid or not, it is a question about maturity and generation - and gender to be fair.
Forst of all, females generally (note that word) prefer other kind of movies than males - I like war films, horror films, action films... you know, the stereotypical male stuff, and I had to sit and watch with my girlfriend at that time, several so-called chick flicks that she really liked - Mean Girls, Coyote Ugly, Sex and the City - the Movie to just mention a few. Not one of these films were rated above 4 by me, and Sex and the City felt like the Spanish inquisition torture.
Then it comes to age. At a certain age you have certain interests and puberty girls naturally have a greater interest in good-looking guys with their shirts taken off than seeing the inside of someone who just stepped on a mine. This is not really true for puberty boys since they can watch that as well. But give them the chice between a film with bang and boom and a film with boobs and they will have a very hard time choose one. Same same but different.
I think that many people simply have to grow up a little before watching certain films, learn how the world and life works. I wouldn't recommend Ingmar Bergman's Scenes from a Marriage for a 15 year old, because they wouldn't have the experience to draw proper conclusions from it, be them right or wrong or simply personal.
I don't think females are stupid compared to males, just different. And that is why we have such a hard time understanding them.
But I like difficulties. :)
