Part of fiction's appeal is being able to experience other perspectives, and this kind of mindset severely limits what you can watch. (And given what you're saying about males, it seems like you're not willing to admit your own weak points, much less sympathize with a girl's.) Again, many things about the human experience - good and bad - are universal. That's why so many protagonists are the way they are, they embody a good "average" human for people to relate to.
