"So the damsel in distress trope is a trope which is as popular as time, so be it stories like fairy tales or Indian mythology, Greek mythology or even action movies. So it's mostly always men saving women. So I think the point is like earlier it was all about gender roles. So like men they do the strong heavy lifting while women were relegated the role of emotional support. But now it has changed so it's not uncool to express emotions anymore."
