Yes, again.
So even though I think CB is pretty annoying at times and definitely not my favorite SATC character, she has the right idea here. Definitely.
It's so funny – I always call the wrong character by the wrong name on this show. But I have seen exactly two SATC episodes ever, in my life. My husband knows every episode, since his ex made him sit through every season!
This is good advice for any young person comparing themselves to others. We see this over, and over, and over again on QLC.com, and I feel like telling them that really, if they stopped comparing themselves to each other and all their friends, about half of their problems would disappear. I think they have to see it for themselves tho, as with any other advice, right? ; )
Haha, Gemma, that's too funny about your husband and SATC. I had a roommate that got me hooked on the show in the late 2000s way after it had come out and was the thing, but it sends a good message to women out there. Overall, I think its really well written and I enjoy the witty banter. I don't agree with the notion that they promote that you have to sleep with everyone you go to dinner with (which is basically what all four of them do) but you take what you want and leave the rest. Thanks for the comment!
Ah, well I don't know too much about dinner dates, but I always liked going Dutch when I was single, which seems to be a midwestern thing. I'm excited to check out the NYC club scene and compare the social mores. (You can only learn so much by a short-term stay, even if you make a lot of them.) Lately I've been watching Jem and the Holograms, which was "THE" cartoon for a young girl in the 80s. It seemed like everyone I knew had a JEM something – lunchbox, Barbie, outfit, etc. If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend it – the outfits and music are super-cute and I found myself wrapped up in the plots. = )
