Every time “aoc psychology” spikes on Google Trends, you can practically hear the collective murmur of young women asking: “Why am I projecting so much onto this woman I’ve never met?”
Honestly, every time “woody allen psychology” pops up on Google Trends, you can almost hear the collective sigh from women everywhere: “Ugh… not THIS conversation again.” Because Woody Allen is not just a director. He is an emotionally complicated pop-culture Rorschach test. Some women grew up loving his neurotic-romantic aesthetic. Others side-eye him with the same energy they reserve for “we need to talk” texts. Many simply don’t want their comfort-movies morally audited at 2 a.m. And this is why his image still divides women today: it’s impossible to like him without explaining yourself, and impossible to dislike him without arguing with someone’s nostalgia.
