'Sex' sells, but will men see 'City?' - Variety
I must confess that I grow a bit weary at the media’s droning chorus of “Men hate SATC and women love it!” Enough, please. I myself, a bona fide woman, detested the show — wouldn’t even stay in a room where it was on a TV — and would rather be dragged over carpet tacks and then dipped in iodine than see the movie. I also have a couple of male friends who adored the show and are rushing out to see the movie at the first opportunity. I can’t imagine that I’m so unusual, or that my male friends are. Really, are we all so eager to shoehorn the sexes into neat little boxes that we buy into pat nonsense like this? (New York Magazine does a little bit better with the story, since they actually acknowledge the existence of women who don’t have any use for the movie, but, well, you know, it is New York Magazine.)
