In hindsight, poor old Miranda got a raw deal while ground-breaking TV show Sex and the City was still on our TV screens. Often the naysayer and complainer in the group, our deluded young selves argued the case for why we were the Carrie, the Charlotte or the Samantha of our respective circle of friends, anyone but Miranda really. Now, ten years after the last episode aired, we have a new-found respect for fiery Miranda, and her zero-tolerance attitude to bull. You go girl. To mark actress Cynthia Nixon’s birthday, here are ten of the best lessons Miranda taught a younger you.
_________________________________________________
1. There is no room for another woman in the bedroom
2. It’s all one big conspiracy
3. Sometimes friends need to tell you things you really don’t want to hear
4. Sometimes you still won’t listen, and you need to be told again
5. It’s ok to zone out for a guilty pleasure now and again
6. Priorities are everything.
7. Real relationships don’t stand on ceremony. Pass the pizza.
8. Everything said about dating is actually code for something else
9. Sometimes there is no winning
10. Men are not from Mars, women are not from Venus. Sex is simple.
