It shows how pathetic society is when a vapid prime-time equivalent of an airhead soap opera with tawdrier trappings is so popular with so many.

Of course Heinlein's view of women bore no resemblance to SATC, either.

this post was f'ing hilarious. Makes me wanna whip out my Heinlein and bathe in the uber-manly glory of Jubal Harshaw, Lazurus Long, or Colonel Campbell.

At times, it really is like men and women are from different planets.

What a great post!

Although I'm a woman, I always got the implication of the price tag on the shoes.

I'm a sucker for romance, real and vicarious, but the SITC women get on my nerves. Their minds appear to be so consumed by the subject of men-men-men and me-me-me that they appear to have left real life to exist in some closet filled to capacity with their obsessions.

Not too much depth should be expected from romantic comedies, but when the theme is stretched for so long over so many episodes, it begins to have a gagging effect., like too much overly sweet icing on a cake.

I'm with the men on this one.
