Looking at my research, most romance films look at the relationship from the woman's point of view. The males are either perfectly charming, or perfectly stubborn which may not be able to target the male audiences. Emotions that are displayed in the romance genre, are not conventionally enjoyed by men (males stereotypically do not like publically sharing emotions) Fairytales (Lady and the Tramp; Beauty and the Beast; Sleeping Beauty) are forms of romance that are targeted towards children, showing innocent love.
Most romance films are PG to 18. The films go up in certificate depending on the 'sexual' natures of the films. Sleepless in Seattle, for example, is a PG however I think it's aimed more towards adults because of the adult leads. Twilight, a 12, is a romance film that is targeted towards teenagers as opposed to adults. We see this by the age of the lead characters.
