This cover of Carrie in season 2 of SATC sums up how single women in their thirties are really viewed... Single and Fabulous, but always with a question mark!
I discuss this and more in my upcoming book #singleandpsycho

@dieworkwear I wondered if you had any thoughts on the suits in North by Northwest and if there were any differences between Cary Grant and James Mason's and what it says about them?

If you could you back in time and watch a movie on its original release in the cinema, what would you choose? For me, Psycho - the thrill of the audience reaction must have been so much fun 🎬

@kateStrasdin That's terrific to hear, glad your students were inspired!!

"Hollywood is cruel to women," says Michelle Yeoh in an interview with Demi Moore. "It’s either, you are the mother or you’re old enough not to be sexy in their eyes. Why can’t a 45-year-old, a 50-year-old, or 60-year-old, be sexy?"
Exactly the theme of my book Crazy Old Ladies

[Caroline J Young @Caroline79]

Every time I listen to Taylor Swift's The Last Great American Dynasty, I immediately think of Frances Farquharson.

As a fashionable American eccentric who shook up the Scottish Highlands, she was "The maddest woman this town has ever seen" 🎤

Childless cat lady has long been code for lesbians - in 1942's Cat People Simone Simon turns into a ferocious panther whenever her husband tries to have sex with her. She also finds kinship with a fellow cat lady who is part of a secret club.

[Juliet Bennett Rylah @JBRylah]

I once knew a woman who was meek, deadend job, unlucky in love. Then she adopted like ten cats after her boss pushed her out a window and it honestly solved all her problems. She even bagged the richest man in Gotham City. So I'm just saying it seems like MORE CATS is the move.

@HenleyLitFest @PhyllisCourt @Rick_Stein @Ms_PatelHistory @GylesB1 @suehendra @LaPlanteLynda @dannywallace @jhalakprize Looks great!

[Caroline J Young @Caroline79]

It’s a ride through gothic fiction, film noir, Fatal Attraction, the 1990s from hell movies, Bridget Jones, and the new generation of avenging angels of I May Destroy You and Promising Young Woman. And it’s also a shout out to messy brats!

[Caroline J Young @Caroline79]

I didn’t realise I would be so timely in my defense of childless cat ladies, but I have a new book out next year – Single and Psycho: How Pop Culture Created the Unstable Single Woman, published by @KentuckyPress (1/2)
