My favorite genre to read and watch is romance. I feel as though I know this genre well because I am a hopeless romantic. The romance genre brings out my emotional side by using pathos, which appeals to people’s emotions and can make them relate to the characters in stories. Another genre in popular culture is comedy. Comedy and romance can go hand-in-hand in the way that they both use pathos; The comedy genre uses pathos by making people giggle and smile, while romance makes peoples hearts flutter. Romantic-comedies are a popular movie genre that attracts both men and women to the theaters. The Kissing Booth is a perfect example of a romantic comedy because it provides humor into a love story.
