Radical Romantic Comedy

I must say, after reading chapter 4 of McDonald's insightful (and
informative) book, I am left with a detailed description and analysis of
what exactly a "radical" romantic comedy is. However, there is one
aspect that certainly blew my mind, so to speak. For instance, part of
the "radical" concept of said comedies is the introduction of the
woman's interest in various sexual activities. This was fascinating to
me. Is the writer inferring that part of what makes this new form of
romantic comedy so "radical" is the fact that the female characters, for
the first time, enjoy partaking in sexual activity? I would hardly
consider that "radical." Perhaps she is referring to the fact that such
a topic or situation in a romantic comedy was not addressed prior to the
late 1960s. Though, going by this, it is just as radical to say that
the men were not interested in sex either until the late 1960s, for
before, thanks mostly to the censorship code that existed in Hollywood,
there was hardly any inference to such activities. How intriguing!
A little bit off the topic, but in class, we briefly discussed Woody
Allen's "Annie Hall." My friend did a scene from the film in my theatre
class last year. It sounds very interesting. I would very much like to
see it in its entirety!
