Never watched the 1st show, which looked totally creepy to me; never heard of the other 2.
Never had children. Wanted to, but never met right man at right time. From grade schooI on, life inevitably took them away at 1st spark of interest. In hindsight, don't regret. My parents were a match made on hell. End of lineage on this case is a good thing. Dead stop to the cycle of violence.
And in the last 3 years, seeing the train wreck our country has become, I have never been happier to be childless & alone.
I don't have an apartment or a cat. I do have a paid for minifarm with 2 rescue ponies, 4 chickens, 10 mostly rescued budgies, a senegal parrot (who was a companion to a rescue) & 2 dogs (1 rescue, 1 not). Giving homes to unwanted, dumped critters gives me meaning & heals my inner unwanted self.
And, some years after a neighbor stole my barn cat, a shed full of beautiful green & gold garden snakes explains explains the recent lack of mice.π
The girl I dated during my late 20s that loved SATC. Her entire goal in life was to marry a rich guy so she didnβt have to work. She Didnβt want kids because βI couldnβt imagine spending that kind of money on someone other than myselfβ (yes she actually said that out loud). She was constantly in $10k credit card debt for shoes and clothes and always complained that I didnβt make enough money (I was making about $90k at the time).
I only dated her because she was hot, slutty and liked to get drunk and party. She eventually broke up with me because I didnβt take her to Hawaii for her birthday. She felt like she was entitled to a man that made $500k so she never had to work and could become a βstay at home dog momβ.
Last I checked sheβs nearly 40, still unmarried, a bit overweight and with no kids. I hope she finds her $500k/year man! You know, one of those high status rich guys thatβs into old, fat, infertile women and not hot 20 year olds π
Where have all the good men gone?!?!?! A generation of college students has had a 3:2 female:male ratio. Since women are hardwired to marry up, one-third college-educated women have a stark choice to make. Marry down, never marry, or go lesbian/trans. They will vote Dem forever because daddy government will take care of them...
Kim Cattrall was in Big Trouble in Little China. So there's that. Also appearing in BTILC is the one and only James Hong. One of the hardest working actors in the business, Mr. Hong is still working at age 94! He most recently appeared in Everything Everywhere All at Once. The More You Know!
GAWD. How I hated Sex And The City. I watched ONE episode years after it had stopped filming and I thought β THIS? This tripe is what has captured the vapid imagination of my fellow human beings??β Gross.
Outstanding and very very funny. Despite having been a fan of SATC back in the day, you are correct in saying it was setting the path for many current social ills. As a man, I was successfully able to delay having kids and act the adolescent for a long time, but many of my female contemporaries paid the price. SATC surely played some role in that, as modern feminism veered off the rails into chronically lying to women.
Ha - I'm so tired all the time you can hardly see any white at all in my eyes. I could be both a sociopath and a drug addict and you'd never know.
Great article. No TV since 1996 and no McDonalds since 1992 when I saw that McDonalds truck driver come in and grab fries out of the bin with his dirty hands. All fast food stopped shortly afterwards. TV is fast food for the brain, and I can't afford to lose any more sense.
Never saw Entourage but did suffer through a couple seasons of the much hyped SATC with my wife who wanted to give it a go. She seemed to enjoy it and I kept my opinion to myself until one evening, to my surprise and great relief, in the middle of an episode she said βI canβt watch this crap anymore.β Apparently her Midwest sensibilities could no longer take it. I was thankful to no longer sit through an hour of teeth grinding.
Entourage, from what I heard from fans sounded like a celebrity frat party set in the entertainment industry. No thanks.
Yuri - a little piece of gold laid out for entertaining pleasure: thank you. Fun little serious dig at the scamming going on left right and up one orifices while drunk ... The personal stories with happy endings gave the shiny edge. Memes: sublime. Works of art. Tee shirt tidy. I say you could start putting cotton to those words on our chests and Iβd be proud : gospel according to Yuri.
you have to admit. that Lincoln was awesome. I watched the show just to see that car with the aptly named "suicide doors". were are those "stars" now? Jeremy Piven was trashed later in the news. the others just faded.. Sex In The City? meh

I am always happy for people who find their peace and nurture life!

Last time I checked they got killed in endless wars.

Kim Cattrall was also in one of the best Star Trek movies and one of my childhood favorites, Mannequin.

βThere is a direct equine lineage from SJP to AOCβ: this line and the corresponding photos made me ELL OH ELL. Great post! ππ½
I have never watched Sex in the City and never wanted to. Vapid lib/left loose women do not interest me. (Yes, I did edit myself there.)
Another fabulous Yuri read, always ahead of the game and VERY interesting.
The memes are awesome, must make the Commies in our midst squirm.
I Never watched either of these things. Now Iβm glad I didnβt lol
They fit in well with the east and west coast dystopic shit holes formerly known as NY and LA.

Sarah Jessica Parker peaked in "LA Story"......
