Toxic Takeaways - How Sex and the City Fell Short
Shop our Limited Edition Merch: https://bit.ly/3bB3QMx | When Sex and the City first aired to 3.7 million viewers in 1998, the show was hailed as refreshingly candid and real in how it depicted love, sex, and being a woman in New York City, through the eyes of
Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Charlotte (Kristin Davis), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), and Samantha (Kim Cattrall). But looking back, was it really so progressive? While it discussed sex with an admirable frankness, many of the insights it made and the conclusions it came to fell short. Too often it upheld regressive ideas about sexuality, and instead of breaking down barriers for everyone, it fostered problematic stereotypes around gender, race, and class. And so, as much as there is to love about this show, we can’t help but wonder: what did Sex and the City get wrong?
