Kinda bordering a strawman here, but if I said

why are men attracted into the airhead type?
there would be bunch of dudes saying they are into intelligent women and that’s just hollywood.

Dylan says “Why don’t girls like me,” sulking. “Hey,” “Dylan” says the offscreen voice. Dylan looks over to see a giant amalgamation of women, some of them are falling as it moves. The amalgamation speaks to him. “It’s me, all girls. Only you understand that all women share a consciousness, Dylan. Be one with me . Link yourself to the hivemind.” Dylan has stopped sulking, as he now only cowers in fear.

Men are attracted to the “airhead type” because those women are good at making men feel good about themselves and keeping up lively conversation; and though people usually prioritise companions who have the same interests as them, they enjoy talking also to a lively conversation partner, perhaps someone as-different-from-themselves as possible, someone who surprises them.

Many men feel that all women have the “airhead” quality - no, not as in they’re all stupid, but as in they’re lively and conversational in that stereotypical way that disrupts the man-to-man conversation; and though they do not speak to men as equals (preferring to talk over them or jerk the conversation off on some other tangent, perhaps, or dwell on uniquely feminine topics which baffle/disinterest the male listener), this is seen as no big loss, really. For women are different to men, and their presence in our lives is welcome precisely because of that rather than in spite of it.

The important thing to remember is that people change overtime and every person is more multifaceted than massive media would have us believe - so yes, that is “just Hollywood.” Who’s to say why a man likes an “airhead,” she probably has more depth than you know about.
