My friend once told me I was a Charlotte. At the time, it felt like the ultimate insult.

After all, for a long time, Sex And The City’s Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) was everyone’s least favourite character. A marriage-obsessed, prudish Park Avenue princess, Charlotte was always the boring, conservative one of the fabulous foursome. More often than not, she was the butt of the joke, with the other three consistently mocking her for her prissy ways and even leaving her out of some of their brunches.

In fact, even the creator of Sex And The City, Candace Bushnell, wasn’t a Charlotte fan. “My friends and I always used to joke that, in real life, Carrie, Miranda and Samantha would be friends and Charlotte would not be friends with them,” she once told Bustle. “Charlotte was manufactured to provide that romantic [archetype] of, ‘Oh, I want to find a man.’ I didn’t know women who were like that.”

In other words, no one wanted to be a Charlotte.
