OK Boring post. here's the teacher in me coming out.
The Traditional meaning of 'Romantic' is what was meant here. merriam-webster has, 'having an inclination for romance : responsive to the appeal of what is idealized, heroic, or adventurous.'
Make more sense?

Cheers!

I'm well aware of the various definitions of word romance, thank you. However, you can hardly blame me for pointing out the dual meaning of the word, given the description 'two-fisted' in the masthead. It was a joke; sorry if it didn't strike you as funny.

No offense intended at all. So apologies. And yes, I did get the joke. But my post wasn't necessarily aimed at you. I stand by my general comment which was that in my observation most people currently (in this age when many people don't read more than Facebook posts) are not aware of the traditional meaning of the word.
cheers!
