I don't think so. My best friend was ditched by her parents when she was three days old because of her disability, raised by her grandparents.
Her mom went on to marry someone else and have two other kids, neither have jobs, one has a baby, the other dropped out of high school, while my best friend could have done the same thing she graduated, went to college, graduated from college and has a good job.
Pretty good for someone from a family that's considered poor white trash.

There are always people who can work their way out from hard beginings
and equally there are lots of privileged people who piss their opportunities up the wall.

But it takes a lot more effort to get where your friend from her start in life.

This is really a whole different argument to the point I started off making, which is that Sex and the City is extremely sexist and actually hampers equalty.
