Sex and the city and the relationship dynamic

[KarmaSutra]

I love this fvcking show. Always have. Within the relationship dynamic it's as real as real gets on television. If you want to know what women talk about and think about watch the show. Learn it, live it, love it.

More importantly, women are absolutely obsessed with it. I've come to realize if you know the nuances of the show; the characters, the plot and sub-plots, the situations and relatability to our own relationships it is instant social proof. Really look at it. The characters have great style in their clothing, the dialogue is true, the situations these girls find themselves in can and ,more than likely, happen to those of us who brave the social scene.

I came up with a perfect opener which I've used with great aplomb. Although it does work better when you're hanging out with women.

Here it is:

"Hey you guys, I only have a couple of minutes then I need to get back to my friends but I needed to find something out? Who is Mr. Big? The reason I ask is that my friends over there and the waitress are all saying that I remind them of a Mr. Big, is that a good thing?"

Boom! Instant social proof and elevated status. The chicks light up and throw out all kinds of reciprocal flow about how great he is and what a true man should be and connecting that to me just slides me in! Ah, the joy of emerald eyes aglow!

I urge you to lose the disdain for the show and look at it from a learning perspective.

...hmm.

I heard it was a very cynical, negative show, that it was all about the joy of using/manipulating men.

BUT I may put it on netflix if you recommend it so highly.

It's by no means a man-basher. The chicks on the show fvck up more than anyone else. Watch it and you'll see brother.

What the fvck do you have to lose?

Big fvcking shocker. If there ever comes a show with " 'Hor " in the title you'll be right in front of the tube with a big bucket of fried yardbird soaking it up.

Nothing to lose... if you think it's something that's going to genuinely help me, then I'm willing to give it a shot.

Any knowledge is good. Especially in this game.

My ex loved that show. I watched it enough times to know the plot and the main characters, and I've said it before....it's a good show.

Why do women eat it up? because it's a reflection of their desires. They can see themselves in the characters. They also see traits that they would LIKE to have themselves.

I didn't watch the show enough to know WHY, but the ex did compare me to that Mr Big character. I think it had something to do with the fact that she saw me as somewhat of an enigma and the fact that I wasn't falling all over myself to commit. I'll take it as a compliment

I was at a bar and a group of HB7s and 8s told me I looked like Jack from that show. Would have been a good opportunity if I knew who the hell they were talking about.

There was no "Jack" on SATC. There's a Jack on Lost, I guess that's as good if not better than Mr. Big.

Sh!t man, substitute Jack for Mr. Big in my Mr. Big opener and It's another gold line!

I've never watched that show once, and never had any interest to. What are all women hypnotized by this damn show? Even my mom tried to get me to sit down and watch it once. I watched for about 5 minutes then got up and left.

 

[KarmaSutra]

I've learned quite a bit from watching the show. Plus, as I've stated previously, it's a huge leap in social status.

I don't watch it for the girls (The 4 of them have faces that resemble feet) but it is so well written that it begs to be talked about.

Well be careful using your knowledge of Sex in the City to score babes, Karma

He wasn't a major character with a threaded plotline. Ron Livingston was only in a handful of episodes.

If you can't be arsed to watch the show (though I seriously recommend it) read this profile of Mr.Big.

I just got through the first season, Mr. Big is very suave.

If you are a newbie you should watch the show.

I wouldnt say its a must watch for the male characters, but moreso relationship dynamics as the OP said and just the psyche of an array of women.

I like the show because of its up-tempo, witty, approach to everything, but I guess you can also find some seduction related ideas in it also
