I used to go along with the masculine hatred when I was younger, but secretly always enjoyed the flick. It's just... why the hell couldn't he try once more to find a spot on that plank of wood?! 
Also, I feel bad for whomever actually ended up marrying Rose. You know she was mind-boning Jack Dawson for the entire duration of her life.

Mythbusters took this one on. turns out that Cameron actually got this right, that size of broken plank made out of the type of wood it was would not have held both of them. they did figure out that if Rose had taken off her life jacket and tied it around the plank so that it sat underneath, it would have boosted the buoyancy enough so that they
might have both been able to fit on. but as neither of them were MacGuyver, i guess they never thought of that
