I don't think you always get to see a woman on TV who is relatively neurosis-free and, while looking for a relationship, isn't man hunting and isn't cloying and isn't a fashionista.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A female friend who caught me watching Fashion TV reckons its audience is largely made up of slobbering men who are just taking a break from the appalling Men & Motors channel. I don't agree.
I've watched women being hideously unattractive, personality-wise and physically, all the time. But these women never end up on screen.
You rarely see women being nice to each other on television anymore.
There are so few representations of women that look remotely real in scripted television.
It's important to me that I look good on television because, let's face it, I'm single, and you want somebody to watch the show and fall in love with you.
Women on television are not a fad; we are not a trend - we are a reality!
Handsome, thin, sophisticated men often fall madly in love with larger women, we just never see it on TV.
I've never considered myself to be a fashionista type of guy.
With women, there's a basic female instinct of caring deeply about the way they look; women stars have a narcissist complex.
I think it's really rare to see women on television who are brilliant, selfish, vain, fallible - and I feel like I have all those capacities in myself, so it's good to see people in the media representing all of those things.
