Why do daughters always need rescuing?


Why do daughters always need rescuing in action movies? Why not sons? Would men be embarrassed if they had to rescue their teenage son? Would there be some meathead sat in the audience thinking "Jeez that's just embarrassing, that boy is almost a man and he needs his daddy to come rescue him, grow a pair kid and fight your own way out of there."

Because daughters live in a fantasy world and expect that the world will treat them like their father does.

That's kind of what I was going to say...so I'll add that it's for the same reason women can't drive. They aren't aware of anything or anyone else around them.

The usually damsel in distress and these chicks are stupid. Its usually not the son unless he is a kid.

Because everyone knows teenage girls are dumb as a box of rocks and more self-involved than a crackhead going cold turkey.

A better question is why are the daughters always super hot 26 year olds playing 16 year olds that although they've been kidnapped for days on end never end up being raped 99% of the time or even face the threat of it.
Seriously, how bad are the bad guys these days?

That you think so, only tells something about what movies you choose to watch.

The OP has made a very eloquent point.
