lol I like your twist: that your readers at lj may be as blind as those watching/reading a romance.... "knowledge is structured in consciousness" that is to say, we only see what we are ready to see (or worse, what we want to see).
Of course why should the stories we watch or read be any different than real life? Too often our RL romances are mostly delusion aided by a lot of wishful thinking.... (I should keep my thoughts on that to myself, huh?)
