Her best-selling book and the racy TV series it inspired taught a generation of women that they could have it all.
But Sex and the City creator Candace Bushnell, 60, has admitted that she regrets choosing a career over having children as she is now truly alone.
The TV series starred Sarah Jessica Parker as a writer in New York who famously chooses her independence over motherhood.

I found it funny and entertaining. I just thought the fairy tale/happy ending they wrapped it up with was laughable. Reality is women like that become old cat ladies. They shouldve showed that ending.

FL, I work in a nursing home, and so many folks have NO ONE. Lonely people exist in the tens of millions in America, many of them thanks to disastrous decisions that they made in youth.

Tough to be "home and alone" when you get old, old, old...
I cannot even imagine what it would be like to be almost 86 and not have all these children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren...
Over the past decades, who would I have had to give all (well, almost all) of my guns & ammo to?

And even Candace Bergen admitted that Dan Quayle was right.Is that true? The article called "Dan Quayle Was Right" was published in 1993 The Atlantic by Barbara Dafoe Whitehead, an academic who studied trends in family and sex relations. Bergen was not the author of that phrase, but was the "object" of the essay, which cast a critical eye on the message of Bergen's liberated female on the Murphy Brown show.

I read on and saw that you posted a link saying that Candace Bergen did say "Dan Quayle had a point" in 2002 -- and the author of the article copied the Atlantic article title from 1993, which had made quite a stir at the time. Thanks for the link. Interesting that she admitted it.

The hard cold fact is, guys arent interested in how successful a woman is in her career. You want to make a career woman flip out?
Tell her that a successful, professional man would prefer to live in a small house with a young, attractive woman who wants to have sex with him every night, bear his children, and be a housewife and helpmate to him, than live in a McMansion with a career woman who is too tired to want sex and too old to bear kids.

I once did a service call on a single woman with 13 cats. The place stunk.
