HBO's Sex and the City is a show that changed the notions of romance, sex, dating and fashion forever. Millions of viewers idolized Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte for for more than half a decade and as far-fetched as the lives of these glorious city girls were(Jimmy Choos on a columnist's salary, anyone?), I hardly know of any females that this show didn't affect. What have I personally picked up from this iconic show? Read on to find out.

Carrie Bradshaw1. Friends will always judge you because they love you. It's impossible for them to be indifferent to something that you've done. But, a real friends puts her personal opinions aside and helps you get through whatever you're facing. Even after you've told your best friend that you just slept with your married ex-boyfriend.

2. No matter who says what or how many real-life examples anyone gives, exes can never remain friends. Something is bound to happen and it if it hasn't happened yet, just wait and see, it will.

3. If a man is insecure from the very beginning, trust that this attitude will last. Men hate being upstaged by women.

4. Women can't have sex like men because we aren't as easy. It takes a lot more effort for us to orgasm. After all, we are the chosen ones.

5.  Yes, Manolos always makes everything better but I know better than to think I can afford them on a columnist's salary.

6. It's never alright to accept an engagement ring that you hate at first sight. Especially if it's gold with a pear-shaped diamond.

7.  Short, balding men are often better in bed than a chiseled man towering at 6'3".

8. You can't tell if a man has difficulties 'getting it up' just by looking at him. So, please don't marry him unless you've slept together first.

9. Telling a man your pregnant will obviously not make him want to have sex with you.

10. Every girl needs a vibrator. The End.
