only problem, problems...


I was skeptical about the show from the start. BUT I became invested in the characters and their development. However, I have major issue with the fact this show shoves not only perpetuates the false idea that every woman dreams her whole life about marriage and having children, it also perpetuates the promiscuity of women in positions of power. I could go into full detail but that would be an uncomfortably long article. Nonetheless, I will see this through to the end. I only hope writers and networkS will finally understand that women's lives are much more than a lifelong dream of pleasing a man and popping out kids! End rant...

Kim and Terri don't dream about marriage and kids. I don't think the real Jane did either. The only main character I remember expressing that interest is Deb.

Regarding the "promiscuity," women are free to have sex with however many men they want, and they don't deserve to be referred to in a derogatory way. There's nothing wrong with sharing one's body with others. It doesn't mean that they're bad, immoral people.
