Default Re: Question for the Girls - Sex and the City fans

hmm..i know plenty of muslim women that watch it, so i really think there are tons of closet fans on here. fess up, ladies. in fact, i know quite a few muslim guys that watch it, too.

while i do agree that it tends to get a little too raunchy, there is an element of universality in the show regarding relationships and how women perceive them to be (versus how they actually play out in their lives). for us older women on here..who here HASN'T dealt with a guy that had commitment issues? or a guy that was totally into you, but just not..for you? got married to the man of your dreams, had the 'perfect' wedding..and realized..there was something still missing? struggled between having to make choices (that we essentially shouldn't have to make)...between marriage/kids and careers? worrying that picking the latter will result in you remaining single for the rest of your life?

come on. you all have worried/thought of those things. if you look at it as a comparison and not as a reflection of your lives, it fits just fine. i bet in all of your circles of friends, you have similar characters...one thats gung ho about her career, one thats daydreaming about getting married 24/7, one thats a total flirt, and another thats kind of bounding and rebounding between the marriage vs. career choices constantly.
