SATC was produced by two gay men, Michael Patrick King and Darren Starr, but the show’s writers were all single women who lived in New York. It was the only all-female writer’s room in the business.

Also, wasn’t the show written by gay men? So one could say that it doesn’t represent any women, not even the white, rich, straight, and elitist.

It’s formulated as: invoke the Nazis and lose the argument. But there’s a corollary too: before you make your Nazi/SATC analogy, assume that other person is arguing in good faith.

Heh. That’s the last thing Douthat does, assume someone else argues in good faith. He sooo deserves Bradshaw’s law.
