If you'd have left it at Mrs. Bennet then probably but you mentioned Collins so its either Jane or Lizzy. Lizzy has more probability since technically Collins only asked her hand in marriage😛
There is really no need apart from the age old prejudice. I am glad that the Hunger Games movies are doing well and are actually liked by men and Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss is not a s*xualised female action star. I am not sure how many teen boys would actually read the books though, they would probably enjoy it if they like the genre.
Sh*t! Ya I should have stopped at Mrs.Bennet.😆 But I did mean to refer to all of Austen's works. Even the guarantee of a hubby like Darcy or Knightley won't convince me to leave the 21st century. I love the internet, TV, movies and modern sanitation way too much.😆
