Sarah Jessica Parker Asks Why Fans “Judge Women” Characters For Mistakes But “Not Men”
After more than 25 years of playing Carrie Bradshaw, Sarah Jessica Parker has learned to tune out the critics of her complicated character.
The 6x Golden Globe winner recently defended the And Just Like That… sex columnist role as she called out the double standard of messy female characters being “so condemned,” while it’s allowed for men. “I think, fundamentally, Carrie is an extraordinarily decent and good person – an extremely devoted friend, she’s generous of spirit and time, in all she has to offer,” she told Huffpost about the role she originated on HBO ‘s Sex and the City(1998-2004). Based on Candace Bushnell’s New York Observer column, Sex and the City ran for six seasons on HBO from 1998 to 2004, followed by two theatrically-released feature films in 2008 and 2010, as well as the CW prequel series The Carrie Diaries(2013-’14).
