and the City friendship story book,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
The for and also the City 2 premiered this week, showing the 4 ladies more flamboyant and improbable than ever before: a gay wedding featuring Liza Minnelli, an Nights trip to Abu Dhabi, topped off by a chance meeting between Carrie and her ex-boyfriend Aidan. But it Samantha closing line which i find to be the biggest story book of them all: designed a deal ages ago men, babies, it doesn matter, we soul mates. Nor did I care about the impossibly steady stream of men. It had been fun! Who would like to watch women ordering Thai delivery and wearing slip-on Vans? What did bother me was the artifice that has rarely been spoken about the friendships.
Girlfriends will always be a part of TV Ethel and Lucy, Rhoda and Mary Tyler Moore, Monica and Rachel but it took and also the City to elevate those friendships towards the degree of salvation, replacing the idealized romance using the idealized friendships, connections that are seemingly impenetrable to real-life factors such as work, family, time, money,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], partners or the lack thereof.
Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha enduring bond at first seemed freeing, an incubator for third-wave feminism where men were accessories and glamour and girlishness were free to roam. This formula caught on like wildfire,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], turning up in shows like Jungle, Women and which showcased the now-ritualized clink of cocktail glasses. It bled down into younger set with Sisterhood from the Traveling Pants. Even Blair and Serena on Girl, despite their soap-opera dramatics, are always there for every other. Women and celebrity magazines experienced the BFF narrative,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with the emergence of friendships like Oprah and Gayle, Jen and Courtney, and Penelope and Salma,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and advertisers use those laughing cliques to sell everything from birth control to scented candles. For me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], these unimpeachable,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], everlasting friendships have become yet another implausible expectation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and something that I can live up to.
My female friendships,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a few of which are long-standing and intimate, don come close towards the soul union shared by these ladies. The simple truth is, I've good quality old friends, and some good new ones too silver and gold, as the old Girl Scout song says. However they certainly don fit together just like a dinette set: They are separated by interests, personalities, geography,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], bouts of depression, and unadaptable partners. I have never determined a way to turn them all into an inspired motley crew la and the City, and nor, from the things they tell me, have any of my friends. If anything,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this has only gotten harder when i live longer, have more experiences, and meet more and more people; the opportunity that anyone person or small gang can cover every edge of me seems to be shrinking.
The simple truth is, despite the warnings of great importance and from the chick lit and chick flicks from the last decade, finding love and marriage ended up being not too hard. Instead,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it was the perfect girlfriend,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or girlfriends,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that's been so elusive. Nonetheless, every year, images of the or the keep coming at me, on sitcoms,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], commercials, in movies and books. I possibly could compare this commodification of lady cliques to the commodification in our bodies to make money, but with that people at least have a public dialogue to inform and protect us. I have nothing to protect me from feeling bad that I don have a brunch posse, or perhaps an obvious crew of bridesmaids.
There has been such an outpouring of honesty during the last decade about how exactly hard our most significant relationships could be. I don feel bad concerning the complicated ways I am a daughter, a wife, or a sister, and will even be available to my own ambiguities as a mother. But the dialogue about friendships, it hardly seems to exist.
