Sarah Jessica Parker Smacks 'Mean Girl' Behavior
The "Sex and the City" star believes the women of reality TV drive the culture of cruelty.

-Sarah Jessica Parker making a lot of headlines...by speaking out against Meal Girl behavior on the screen and in real life. ABC's Linsey Davis has this story.For 6 successful seasons, it's not just sex and fashion that made the show Sex and City a cultural landmark. It was the strength of friendship.
-You are human.
-I don't wnat him to know that.
But that depiction of female comradery, according to the star of the show, is now a thing of the past. In the April issue of British Harper's Bazaar, Sarah Jessica Parker says, Sex and the City, which started on the HBO excatly one decade ago this week, was a more innocent time. So much reality television and the women that dominate culture today are pretty unfriendly toward one another. Just this week, on the real housewives of Beverly Hills a b* broke out, while the women were away on vacation.
-Shut up!
-Stop, stop, stop!
A far cry from this Sex and the City getaway. Parker, who played the show's beloved Carrie Bradshaw, says women love your character because she was a deeply devoted friend, and I think women really respond to that kind of connection.
-We've all been there.
-It's for sure.
-It's literally like a form of a feminine bullying.
Stacy Kaiser, a licenced psychotherapist, diagrees that many of the female friendships on TV today are cruel and unsupportive.
-I do think that women are mean on television, but I think in real life we women have always had i* to backstab and be mean to other woman.
As for Parker, she admits, we're not always the very best friends we can be, but says I think we all want it, we all work towards having it.
-And it's actually not just women who, Parker says, are cruel. She says she never googles herself or reads anything about herself, because of the harsh things people have to say. She says the random cruel to you is something she just doesn't understand, and that she wishes we could all just go back to a simpler, nicer time.
-I like that idea.
-It's when social media becomes decidedly anti-social.
-Yeah.
-In a survey what you can do with that telling all you are *. We ask you what you think about all this. Is the Mean Girl culture worse ever before? Do you have anything to say? Not even close. 84 percent say yes, and 16 percent say no.
