Sex and the City glorified female notch counts like no other show before it. The article below lists the 1998-2004 notch counts of the 4 main charactersWhat kind of influence has Sex and the City been on women? Negative or Positive?
I tend to think of the show as a televsion version of Cosmopolitan magazine. It just encourages women to over analyze men, and be even pickier and more discriminating than ever. Furthermore, I think it encourages women to be even sluttier than they already are.
One of the effects Sex and the City most definitely had was making the cosmo drink popular. And believe me you don't want to date a girl that likes these. They are easily $8 a pop. But it does get the girl really drunk!
Yes, @Ricky you posted in both 2004 and today on this thread. The $8 drinks in Manhattan in 2004 are likely close to $16 today. Manhattan drinks are more expensive than a lot of places. In Dallas, there are plenty of bars/lounges now with $10-$15 drinks.Haha i even posted in this. $8 drinks hahah in 2004 easily double. That was my gf who drank multiple ones that i posted about in an alcohol thread.
i think it was the Cosmo martini they made so popular
That and imagine a sex columnist affording a posh Manhattan address and designer shoes and purses. Today she'd be freelancing for Daily Beast and HuffPo and probably OnlyFans and barely making ends meet it in Elmhurst.By today's standards, those women's methods of meeting men would be somewhat outdated.
Even in 1998, that was somewhat unrealistic. Carrie Bradshaw's character was a sex columnist as the fictional New York Star, but probably most similar to the New York Post.That and imagine a sex columnist affording a posh Manhattan address and designer shoes and purses.

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.
Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.
This will quickly drive all women away from you.
And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.
Cosmopolitan has always had some interesting articles. I'm sure that if someone were to analyze 5-10 years worth of Cosmo content, a lot of the content would be repetitive.I used to work at a free standing medical center and some of the women read Cosmo back there. This was around the 2009-2014 time frame. I was slightly surprised in the manner they talked about sex in there.
not sure how influential the cosmo magazine was but it had some interesting articles
This guy does a good analysis of the show. Funny how the original actresses can’t stand each other in real life. It was a fantasy life drama for women. Live in luxury and sleep with handsome men. I’d agree that the trad-con Charlotte would be the best choice out of all the characters, lol. The other three were bad choices, a carousel rider, an opinionated lawyer and ”horseface”. I see they have added more characters to be inclusive, like a lesbian, a Latina and a black female, lol. These women are all old now, what is the appeal? Most guys can’t stand drama and show about old women creating drama, even worse.Red pill content creator The Optimized Man analyzed "Sex & the City" and its newest sequel "And Just Like That" from the red pill perspective.
It's wild that there's a show about the lives of 55-60 year old women now. The only people watching this on HBO Max (HBO's streaming service) are older women. I would think it would be mostly 50-64 year old Gen X'ers/late Boomers, though some late Gen X'ers/early Millennials in their 40s might watch. The early Millennials in their early 40s in the present time that would watch likely didn't watch during the original run but likely watched in the 2004-2010 era on DVD or in syndication on TBS in those days.
The main real life conflict is between Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall.This guy does a good analysis about the show. Funny how the original actresses can’t stand each other in real life.
Nope. I am a 80,s kid, and i cant remember anything new's been created. Lets rerun Heman, spiderman, man man. Even i can come up with something new.They are all past their prime. A better spin off would be a show about their daughters. But none of the women ended up in healthy relationships with families. This is more of the same but with more wrinkles .
At some point these shows need to end. Like Fast and Furious 10 for crying out loud. Soon they will be driving hot rods into outer space. Kill the franchise and come up with something new.
Thats 3 lays a year. Yes, it adds up but..unfortunately that is acceptable. Its even modest..Rollo posted about the topic of Sex and the City on his first day as a SoSuave forum member.

In ‘Sex and the City,’ number of sex partners true to New York life
Before Carrie puts on her Vivienne Westwood wedding dress in the new “Sex and the City: the Movie”; before Charlotte became a mom at the end of the TV series; before Smith and Harry, St…www.nydailynews.com
Samantha: 42
Carrie: 18
Charlotte: 18 (notable because she was supposed to be the most prudish and traditional of the women)
Miranda 17
When the show started in 1998, those characters were all 33+ women. In 1998, all those women would have had notch counts of least 15 at the time of Episode 1.
There were promiscuous women on TV prior to Sex and the City. Elaine Benes had 29 boyfriends during Seinfeld's 9 year run and probably had sex with at least 20 of them. In the 1990s, FOX's Beverly Hills 90210 (1990-2000) and Melrose Place (1992-1999) featured a good amount of promiscuity too. I think Sex and the City glamourized the penis carousel more than those other shows, or even earlier night time soap operas like Dallas or Dynasty.

Cosmopolitan magazine had its first issue in 1965, 33 years prior to the first episode of Sex and the City. While Cosmopolitan as a magazine has always glorified sex and penis carousel riding, it came to life more as a live action TV show than in written articles on a magazine or later website. Cosmopolitan was writing about birth control and feminism a lot in its early days. Cosmopolitan and all female targeted magazines have been sliding into irrelevance lately.

Drinking in bars is far more expensive than drinking at home.
Sex and the City might have popularized the Cosmopolitan coccktail for women. Men might have foot the bill for some of those drinks.
Hey I think they should bring back the Golden Girls. #GILFS hahaThis guy does a good analysis of the show. Funny how the original actresses can’t stand each other in real life.

All of the original Golden Girls cast members are dead. They would have to do it with a new generation of early Boomer aged women.Hey I think they should bring back the Golden Girls. #GILFS haha
I'm drinking white wine out of a Solo cup. Could care less because that F U money is coming down the pipe, and other good sh*t. As far as the OP goes, their worshippers are all dried up. No more eggs to go around. Sucks to suck. Wrinkled, delusional, cottage cheese with asbestos sprinkled on top. They best call that mid-life 'crisis line'. Them skeletons in the closet are reality. No cap.Haha i even posted in this. $8 drinks hahah in 2004 easily double. That was my gf who drank multiple ones that i posted about in an alcohol thread.
