By that I mean, you see movies where average guys want to get popular with women, so they will be a protege to a wingman... movies like Hitch or Crazy Stupid Love for example.

But are there any movies with wingwomen characters teaching a woman how to seduce guys pretty much? Thank you for any input on it!

This is pretty much the definition of a wingwoman flick:

(which is based off of Austen's "Emma," one of the earliest wingwomen)

It's true that, loosely defined, most any "matchmaker/best friend" type movie has wingwoman qualities. Women looking out for each other, suggesting double-dates, doing makeovers...that's the feminine form of a wingman.

Okay thanks. I saw Legally Blonde but I didn't consider that to be that kind of movie since it only happened in a short subplot, and it was not the main plot.

I didn't see the others. How To Be Single looks interesting in the trailer. I would have thought that Dakota Johnson would be the wingwoman because she looks like she could attract more guys compared to Rebel Wilson, but maybe that is just my personal taste, and Rebel Wilson's character just knows more about how to get guys.

Oh!


When I saw the title, I thought you were talking about fighter pilots so that would be Iron Eagle II, Battlestar Galactica (either), things like that.


In 1st season Charmed, Is there a Woogie in the house?, Prue asks Piper to be her wingman.

I know but perhaps there was a link or a copy cat somewhere that another knows about. Just as "Miracle Mile" references without saying it "Night of the Comet" so might something else in this case.
