This show is funny and a lot of it, unfortunately, is true. I decided to watch it in order to learn about what it means to be a contemporary woman. But—these women still worship the white man. They want to “have sex like men,” and have power like men. This power is in money and beauty (which, alas, usually involves self-abuse)—the things which allow them to either pretend they don’t want men so they can get men they want, or to attempt to control them. They’re still chasing after husbands like women of the past who didn’t have much choice, only now, it’ a hell of a lot harder. This doesn’t mean, as some conseravatives may argue, that we need to undo the sexual revolution (and give women the advantage they in achieving marriage had by unifiedly witholding sex until marriage, minus the occasional secret hook ups). It just means the sexual revolution can’t just be about sex. A nobler feminism is offered by Virginia Wolfe, who asks women to view themselves in their own context, rather than as a reaction to men. Find meaning that doesn’t culminate in partnership. Don’t try to become equal to men by becoming the same as men. To thine own self be true.
