May. 1st, 2006 09:36 amIn true fangirly fashion, I watched Grey's Anatomy last night simply because I think JDM is hot and he was in it. And, even as a potentially dying patient, he proved yummy. ;)
However, the rest of the show is crap, especially toward women.
One woman was treated like a child because she'd just had a child (goodness knows that means she can't do her job right anymore), even though by all appearances she was very competent.
One woman apparently sleeps with someone higher up in the food chain than her and fully expected him to treat her differently (preferentially) because of it.
One woman seemed to be in love with a married guy, and has a secret friendship with him; when she called him early in the morning and discovered he and his wife were trying to have sex, it made her latch on to the first guy who paid attention to her.
One woman is in love with her patient (though I don't really blame her. It's JDM. ;)), which is bad in the scope of hospital rules and all.
One woman really was in charge...but was undermined by male pride and 'morality' of a resident when she complied with the wishes of her female patient regarding said female patient's own body. The male resident didn't seem to believe it was a woman's right to choose not to have any more children after birthing 7 of them. (I'll just say that my mother practically had a nervous breakdown round about child 6.)
The only thing I liked about the show was JDM. I wonder if I had to be there from the beginning to think all these things pertaining to women were just a-okay?
