Writing exercise

Yesterday I watched “sex and the cityâ€, the TV is about four Manhattan fashion woman find their true love, they have more than 30 years old, independent but unmarried. After watch the TV, I have some reflection. First of all, there are some culture shock, I think American is more open than Chinese on sex topic. Secondly, 30s women choose their mate is more difficult, they are intelligent and have their own career, if they getting along with a young man, they think they are unintelligent and poor, but more than 30 years of age good man is too less. Thirdly, in all TV only no changed thing is four women’s friendship, if they are in trouble, they will help each other, and they also share happiness together. I think It’s precious.

Revised: 

Yesterday I watched “Sex and the Cityâ€, the TV show/series is about four Manhattan fashionable women that find their true love. They are around 30 years old, independent, but unmarried. After watching the TV show, I have some thoughts. First of all, there is some culture differences/I feel culture shock. I think Americans are more open than Chinese people about sexual topics. Secondly, women in their 30s choose their partners more carefully because they are intelligent and have their own careers. If they date/see a young man, they think that these men are unintelligent and poor, but men above 30 are not good enough/unsuitable. Thirdly, throughout the series/show, the only thing that hasn’t changed is the friendship between these four women. If they are in trouble, they will help/assist each other, and also share happiness together. I think It’s precious.
