Honestly, I don't really get it. When I see a show about an entitled white girl, I see someone who is like a lot of people I know, except she is white (and the people I know are either white or Asian). I've seen Asian characters on American TV before, but I could never relate to them because they seem to be from

And you are judging it from just one episode.

And this is something that Jezebel never, ever looks at! What do your parents think of all those 20-somethings driving around in BMWs/Mercedes/other lux cars that are most likely funded by the parents?

But entitlement doesn't see race. Like I said, bratty is bratty. Heck, I know more Asian (or more specifically, CHINESE) girls who're uber-entitled (they're the ones who have the lux cars) than white girls. That was MY point. When race and entitlement/bratty girls come up, it's always bratty WHITE girls. And it's

Can people please lay off the race thing please? TOTALLY. BUGS. Entitled is entitled. Bratty is bratty. At least the girls aren't all driving a brand spanking new Mercedes/BMW/Lexus/Audi/Whatever Luxury Car courtesy of mom and dad.

Are any of these people children of very successful immigrants? A lot of these parents don't want their kids to struggle like they did in their 20s, so they do a lot to help them (e.g. discouraging them from taking part time jobs during the school year). Other parents (both immigrant and non-immigrant) do this

Hey, that's why I said *A LOT* not *ALL*.

One more thing: I think a lot of show haters are the ones with the guilt trip - they're watching themselves being portrayed on TV and don't like one bit of it.

There's a Cosmopolitan TV channel in some parts of the world. Don't know if anyone really watches it though.

I'm over 30, saw it and liked it. I was all... "OMG, that was me five or six years ago, except these girls get to live on their own and I was with the parentals."

You're right other than the "privleged, layabout young WHITE women" part. Entitled 20somethings in New York, Toronto, LA, Vancouver or whatever city come in all races. In fact, I probably know more "entitled" Asian girls than white ones.

Except for the four years I was away at school, I was pretty much living with my parents until I got married. I had a job, didn't pay rent, and came and went as I pleased. Makes me feel guilty that I had the so-called "groovy lifestyle" (#groovylifestyle?) that Hannah's parents were talking about.

That "why you look so sad, girl" comment is something a lot of people get from homeless people. I took that as "well, you look like you could get a job, so you're better off than me. Shouldn't look so sad!"

I think the Kleinfeld brides spend more. The brides who go to Lori's tend to be in the $2K mark.

The samples I tried on were all 8s according every consultant I saw. Now, I didn't see the label on the dress, but they were definitely street 8s and not wedding gown 8s judging from how much they had to pin back - a wedding gown 8 would be more like a street 4. When I ordered my gown, the consultant told me what

I got married two years ago and I can attest that dresses don't run small (I probably tried on 30 gowns - ranging from $500-700 dresses by unknown designers to mid-four figure ones by Vera and Oscar de la Renta). They were all sized the same way and the dress I ultimately got was the same size number as street clothes

I'm 32 and I still call myself a "girl" sometimes. And when I hang out with my women friends on a Sunday afternoon, I'm brunching with "the girls."

White guys with Asian fetishes are scared of me because I'm not "old country" enough for them. My attitude just freaks them out - even those who are from Toronto and went to schools with a decent sized Asian student population.

Yeah, that's really LOL to me. When I was in high school, the many of the Asian girls piled it on while the white girls were still wearing Lipsmackers. This would have been around Grade 10, so we were 15.

You'd be seen as "too Australian" even if you had Asian parents. Here in Toronto, I see a good number of Asian guys with white girls, but the Asian guys almost always give off either a hipster or preppy vibe (often a bit of both) and are 99.999999999% Canadian born/raised.
