I just discovered your blog and your take on the movie and show is hilarious. I admit I was caught up in the madness of SATC. Everything would stop when it was on HBO. I even fell in love with NYC because of it. Nonetheless, the movie sucked , and I’ll be damned if I wait on any man for 10 freaking years. SATC was fantasy at its best. No one I know dates that much, has sex that much,(well maybe one person) or has that mnay shoes. Loved the show, but the movie should have never been made. The way it ended on HBO was perfection.( I am a mix of all 4 characters BTW.)!!

Blah Blah Blah… Enough. Mr. Big is the guy that all ladies want …. Big in the pockets and in the pants. Those that deny this are lying to themselves. All men want a combination of Miranda being the mother, and Sam being the sexually uninhabited Goddess in Bed. The virgin thing is gone forever due to woman’s Lib and the fact that women do not believe in being virtuous anymore. They want to be taken care of instead of being ah help mate…ah partner…ah best friend and that is really sad. Until that changes women will continue to whine and cry about the how a Mr. Big got their goods and bounced lol.

ha I agree with Shadiddy!
and completely disagree with bplease!

Carrie was hardly the princess. Although she did play more the part of “gatherer” with her mass collection of blaniks.

satc is playing with one of the oldest relationship concepts there is and carrie is just a parody of naive college girls.

satc splits the roles:
miranda being the mother,
charlotte being the virgin and
sam being the wh*re

…for carrie she is what we all want deep down ever since we’ver heared our first fairy-tale – shes the princess. look at the dress she wears in the opening sequence…

I think what it comes down to is a woman’s ability to discern fantasy from reality! Sure, I completely identify myself as a Carrie/Samantha blend (lol), and I’ll be damned if they didn’t pull some of Carrie’s love affairs (specifically her and Big’s) out of my own life story! However, I’m not so deluded as to ever think that MY “Big” will ever get his ish together enough to recognize the err of his ways and re-sweep me off my feet like Carrie’s did. Sad, but true. Also, one critique I must make is that, in my opinion, Carrie’s need to leave Aidan was more for lack of compatibility, than it was for a need for someone (i.e. Big) to take care of her. Granted, a man like Big may not be the smartest choice for a woman, but aren’t all good relationships built on the foundation of two people who are on the same page as each other? Settling for the “good man” who bores the shit out of you just doesn’t sound like my idea of a good time…
