Wow. So. Yeah. I see nothing wrong with the four female leads of the series. They're more beautiful than I'll ever be, so kudos to them.
I would be bored to tears watching show where beautiful plastic people in their 20's did nothing but sit around and moan about how tragic their lives are. It's not relatable in any way because your average woman knows that's all bullshit. The Hills is a fabricated world of fake plastic people who try to pretend their lives are far more interesting than they really are. If I had to sit there and watch LC and Audrina try to hash out such sexual foibles as dying your bush bright orange or trying to seduce a priest, I would end up bashing my head in with a fucking brick.
Sex in the City, however, is completely relatable on some level. Shoe fetishes and strange clothing choices aside, Carrie Bradshaw is universally appealing to women because she's flawed both in character and appearance. Sarah Jessica Parker is admittedly not the most stunning creature ever to walk the planet. However, she's still very lovely and endearing because she's so close to "average". The other three women are also lovely and I would be hard-pressed to find a derogatory term to apply to their looks.
The series was never meant to be some sort of hot-chick-delivery-system for straight men. It's a show about the lives of women with sex as the metaphor for many things (and vice versa), and it is definitely more for women (and then gay men crashed the party, whee!) than for straight men. I'm not saying that the series was brilliant. I'm just saying that it deserves more than to be scoffed at for not having whatever it is about The Hills that is apparently so appealing, it warranted the simultaneous bashing of four very pretty women.
Just for you, J... www.ticklekitty.com Sadie Allison is hot AND she talks about sex. And you won't have to hear anything about Manolo Blahnik either.
