Well, last night on Australian TV Cashmere Mafia premiered and wasn't it great! Although it screamed 'Sex and the City' all over again I was not dissapointed. I also loved the fact that the ladies are powerful successful and two of them are Australian actors.
However there is one serious issue and I want to bring it up with you. I was amazed when Mia (Lucy Liu) and her new fiance Jack (Tom Everett Scott) go head to head for the US Publishers job. Mia scores the role and instead of celebrating happiness, Tom dumps her. He thought he was going to get the role and when he didn't he ends it because he wants to come home to his wife and kids.
Hello!?! Are we in the modern world. What happened to having both, family and career. Shouldn't Tom be happy that Mia has been so successful and the fact that she said she does want to have children!?! It just shows that double standards even if it is in the televised world, exists.
Can Women really have it all? Do they have to chose family over career?
I do not think that a woman should be made to chose. I have read success stories all the time about women that have both a family and a career. For all the women out there go for your careers and families. Do not let an ignorant person like Jack from Cashmere Mafia get in your way. Mia, you are better off with out him!
