I love when she said “It’s like those guys you have the great second date with, and then never hear from them again. I pretend they died.”

I guess it’s not fair of me to take this stance, but I just cannot with men who ride their female partners about having a baby. It’s not just that the female partner is the one who’s going to deal with pregnancy and childbirth. Most likely, she’s also going to do more childrearing labor and get less credit for it.

A lot of young women are intimidated by tampons. Many teens have never put anything in their vagina before. Of course they’ll be nervous about inserting a plastic applicator. They’ve never tried to penetrate the area!

I was hoping to hear more sympathy from Charlotte because she has a titled uterus (it is only…

Oh my God, I’m dying! Yes, I just barely remember actual sanitary belts. My grandmother called them “Kotex.” Remember the cardboard tubes as well--what do they look like now? After the first Are You There God-inspired flush of womanhood, I hated getting my period and was thrilled when early menopause happened.

Any of you old enough to remember the belt and the sanitary pads the size of a six inch sub sandwich? Talk about your fun times.

Good question! Mine is when Charlotte is super drunk on the Staten Island Ferry (season 3 premiere?) hanging over the railing and Miranda says, totally deadpan, “If she falls over, I will never stop laughing.”

Man, I miss that Miranda.

To help us remember our dearly departed Miranda as she was: what’s your favorite line of hers from SATC?

I have really like Carrie’s storyline minus what they did with her and Samantha. I kinda like that she is have platonic love story with Seema.

I cannot believe after all the buildup we were not given a scene of Miranda surprising Che in Cleveland. Every episode seems to have a time jump of several days and/or weeks and I do not understand this decision. This episode seems to be several weeks after the last episode. I understand that with only ten episodes…

“But as Steve rightly points out, this has been their dynamic for years. Miranda was always try to change him into something he wasn’t, way back to the SATC episode about the corduroy suit that led to their first breakup, instead of just being content with the way that things were.”

Why can’t Miranda buy Steve a suit,…

I thought her reaction was a bit ridiculous tbh. If it was that important to her, you’d think she’d have talked about it at some point over the several weeks they were together. She was the one who initiated the first encounter, with Miranda never even hinting anything close to having been in an open marraige, and…

I personally thought that the most ridiculous part was her ex-boyfriend agreeing to just give her his own apartment without question as part of the breakup.

Good. She deserves it. Although I wouldn’t mind a plot twist where Miranda buys Che a Peloton and hopes for the best. As far as the lighting, etc., it seems to vary by episode. They made SJP look absolutely garish in the hip replacement episode. There are some scenes where Cynthia looks fabulous, and others where they…

Ah, thought you were. Manhattan only has one real “traditional” mall, Manhattan Mall, a mishmash of stores where Gimbels used to be and a place where these characters would never set an expensive shoe in their JC Penney, Hallmark or GNC (and also sadly dying from the Pandemic like so many businesses). Chelsea Market…

I never got the Steve love. He’s whiny and passive aggressive and I think his and Miranda’s relationship was always there as the example of what happens when you settle for a man you’re not actually in love with, and I always hated that that was the storyline they saddled Miranda with, instead of giving her a real…

Oh sweet, a Gwen appreciation post! While I have no interest in Sex and the City or this new iteration, your integrity, eloquence, humor, and spirit has been a bright spot ever since I first came to this site and I hope you either make it through the current storm or find a place more deserving of your talents.

Congratz, Evan Handler himself tweeted your comment!

I’m at the point where I wish they had never brought Steve back at all. They should have split up as part of the backstory. I don’t recognize Miranda anymore; she is headed straight off a cliff, and it’s strange how she isn’t thinking about Brady’s reaction at ALL.

Miranda right now kind of reminds me of myself when I’m manic. Just burning everything down and jumping into whatever feels exciting. I know she isn’t bipolar, but nonetheless, the low phase is going to hit her like a ton of bricks.

It was rent controlled back then, but that wasn’t the unrealistic and ridiculous part.
