The movie Sex and the City DVD brought in the largest opening weekend ever for a romantic comedy, R-rated comedy, and a film starring all women.

The TV series (though edited considerably) has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its frank and open discussions about sex from a woman’s point of view.

So, after one movie, six seasons, and 11 years, what have we learned from Sex and the City seasons?

1) Female sexual expression is still confined to upper-class heterosexual white women.
2) Older women are still sexual beings.
3) Women have a right to be taken seriously by the world.
4) We long for the fantasy of a strong female friendship more than we long for a relationship.
