Hmm, I read an article recently on how sex and the city ruin a woman's life. I mean she going on pretend living as she is in the sex and city, literally.

I think it took women fantasies of being attractive socialites who didn't worry about money and were chasing / dating attractive and / or powerful men . The thing is it was a fantasy and lots of women got attracted to making said fantasy a reality and that lifestyle has no longevity especially because most Women can't afford to be Carrie Bradshaw by themselves, so they get married and the husband then becomes a sponsor for their fantasy Sex & the city life.

Given the end result -- a bunch of post-wall used up slut-hoe hags who now entirely REGRET trying to follow it as a "life script"?

It would seem more that it was a "sexist" TRAP for stupid females.

I'd like to give you a well thought out, logical answer to your question,

I call it post wall porn- all these men chasing these old 3's and 4's who always find some trifling deal breaking idiosyncrasy in every guy. IRL these women would not get a tenth of the attention these women do and 0 in the #metoo era

To me, it seemed like a continuous indictment on the idiotic, self destructive behavior of the modern woman..

I know this doesn't answer the question, but relevant nonetheless, and hopefully interesting:

The prettiest, most popular girl at my high school LOVED the show, and it's clear she still identifies with the main characters, but merely thinks "she identified with the WRONG [woman in the show]" when she was younger. I don't know the details since I haven't followed the show or her life very much. But I think she used to ID with the popular main character, and now believes she should have been the "man-hating" one of the group.

This girl could have had ANY man - any type - any amount of money, or looks, or popularity, social standing, or whatever. One of the prettiest girls I've ever seen in real life or on screen and the kind of personality that just drew people in, men and women alike.

In fact, she did have many men of many types. Some she cheated on then they dumped her, others she dumped probably out of boredom mostly. Up until she was 28, I can't imagine a man dropping her unless she either cheated or dumped him first. She's just too good-looking and popular... few men could walk away from that unless she made the first move to break things up.

Now she's 31, still looks very good no doubt, for how long, I don't know. But you can tell how sad she is that her life has not worked out the way she expected... even though it's her own damn fault. Of her old friend group, she seems to be the only one not married or in a long-term relationship.

She had so many high-quality men, but didn't keep any of them. Seems like she was always trying to do "one better." Now, personally, I think she's sorta fucked. And I feel no sympathy for her, really. Just sadness and sorrow that society lost out on a great opportunity for a beautiful and caring mother with a low N-count. Instead we're going to get another bitter old feminist who squandered her beauty and probably broke a lot of men's hearts.

She had SO MUCH social power to work with, and has completely squandered it.
