Why we men just hate Sex & The City
Daily Mail ^ | May 13, 2010 | James Delingpole

I'd love to be able to tell you in precise detail what it is that I so thoroughly loathe about Sex And The City.

But to do that, I'd have to sit down and watch it - and frankly I'd rather be dipped in honey, dangled upside-down from a tree and eaten alive by fire ants.

“This is so old fashioned of me...”

Actually, it is not “old-fashioned” at all. It’s WISE. Many of today’s young women are discovering the beauty and wisdom of chastity.

;-)))

You can tell the scripts are written by males.

Well gay males. Now 'The L Word', that was written by straight males, because it definitely was the male fantasy of lesbos, certainly not the reality.

Because it is written by gay men.

Women don't talk like that.

"It's written by guys, who happen to be gay, who are sluts. That's what I think. Let's face it most men are sluts...You have a bunch a guys who are sluts, writing for women and telling them they are supposed to act like this... I've never seen the show. Are the girls like that or not?"

It’s got delicious satire and a witty script, the scenery is magnificent from the previews, and the clothes are fabulous, darling. Plus Aidan is back.

I’m in for 90 minutes of escapism, when the DVD comes out

When I was in Las Vegas recently, the casinos actually had slot machines based on this insipid show.

Slut machines?

Sarah Jessica Parker should win some award for being the absolute ugliest female EVER in movies or TV.

She looks more like a female impersonator to me.

I think I tried watching one episode that I could not make it through. It has the one dimensionality of a porn movie except without the pictures. It’s basically, “let’s talk smut”.

add “but men will marry women with issues if they are rich” and you have Jane Austen

surely a losing proposition for a storyline

You should watch “Live Nude Girls” just for the one scene with Cattrall in a teddy when the pizza guy comes to the door. It’s a horrible chick flick but that one scene makes it all worth it if you like Cattrall at all.

She’s as beautiful as a foot
She’s as beautiful as a foot
She heard someone say, the other day

Didn’t believe it when he bit into her face
Didn’t believe it when he bit into her face
It tasted just like a fallen arch

She’s as beautiful as a foot
She’s as beautiful as a foot
She heard someone say, the other day

Don’t put your tongue on the bloody tooth mark place
Don’t put your tongue on the bloody tooth mark place
Her face changing now, a guernsey cow

She’s as beautiful, oh so beautiful, beautiful as a foot
She’s as beautiful, oh so beautiful, beautiful as a foot
She’s as beautiful, oh so beautiful, beautiful as a foot
She’s as beautiful, oh so beautiful, beautiful as a foot

She heard someone say (She heard someone say), the other (day)

She’s as Beautiful as a Foot - Blue Oyster Cult

Dunno, lots of strait women love having a gay friend. I’m not saying they would or want to act like the hos on the show

I don’t want to be a cage fighter, pro ball player, pro football player, pro golfer, but based on my viewing habits you’d think that’s what I was all about.

Sarah is definitely not aging real well (in that unretouched photo).

Sex and the City is just another attempt by liberal entertainment types to bolster the wrongly held belief, in those circles, that women can be just like men, now that the pill and abortion laws enable them to jump from bed to bed with impunity.

The fact is women are not like men, they are not equipped emotionally to be promiscuous. Modesty in women developed as a survival mechanism, and is still too engrained in our genetic makeup to be a non-factor.

A man, generally speaking, doesn't give a hoot if the one he bedded last night isn't interested in calling him back, for women it is existentially important.

The show also scripts way too much potty mouth, another (false) way of implying that women can be just like men.

Oh, no! That magnificent creature has no place here! (Awesome pic, by the way.)

I watched one episode. They should have just cut to the chase and called it “Sluts R Us in the City”. I’d rather eat a bar of soap while having a bikini wax than watch it again.

Wow, there are some mean people in this thread, re. Jessica Parker.

Certainly the characters deserve some castigation, the characters are crude and unsophisticated.

The redhead is particularly offensive; my dog has better table manners.
