Yeah, I said it! They're plain stupid! The have the dumbest titles in the history of movies.
Their characters are as dumb as the movie itself. Seriously, every girl movie has to have:
A.) Girls always complaining about being a virgin
B.) Stupid humor
C.) Some random homosexual dude that doesn't appear but only once
D.) All of the above
To any girl here:
I mean no offense, I'm just stating how I feel.
I've been dragged to so many of those by my mother/relatives (I have a lot of aunts, and like, no uncles) that I can tell you the entire plot of every single chick flick.
1. Boy meets girl
2. Boy goes out with girl
3. Girl meets other boy
4. Boy 1 ends up doing a jackass move and pisses off girl
5. Girl falls for boy 2 but then realizes that boy 2 is more of an idiot than boy 1
6. Cue rainy night scene where boy 1 takes a cab to girl's apartment and pleads for forgiveness
7. Marriage or something
I'm done.

When you think about it though, the directors were smart to make the main character an empty shell so that girls can put themselves into that spot and feel for the character. This is probably why (most) guys hate them so much, since they can't relate and just find the movies stupid (like me!).
I would disagree generally; Chick Flicks written by old male writers generally are as you described (same reason half the stuff on Nickelodeon is so corny), but a lot of chick flicks, like "Dear John" and "The Notebook" (I've only seen the latter) are very touching. I personally don't care to watch them en masse, but they really are great movies, especially if you have your girlfriend with you.
I am a heterosexual guy, by the way.

There's a very simple idea to surviving a chick flick if you're ever brought to one... bring an MP3 player with some death metal.
