What We Think

Cashmere Mafia was pretty modern for its time, with a heavy dose of female empowerment and workplace drama. While not ultra-woke by current Hollywood standards, it certainly helped pave the way for today’s trend of ideology-forward storytelling. Expect some girl-boss energy and a reduced role for traditional values.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Cashmere Mafia puts a strong emphasis on successful, high-powered women in lead roles, focusing on their careers and personal lives. While character motivations are explored, some viewers could see identity themes and girl-boss messaging as occasionally overpowering more nuanced character development. Narrative isn’t fully sacrificed for ideology, but there’s a detectable agenda at times.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

This show subverts traditional gender roles by elevating women in business and depicting traditional family structures as less central. Masculinity is often sidelined or stereotyped, and the main focus is female empowerment. Family and religion are present but generally peripheral, signaling a shifting attitude toward cultural touchstones.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are not ridiculed, but traditional perspectives are definitely marginalized. The narrative centers nearly exclusively on modern, upper-class, professional women. There is limited genuine debate or pluralism; the focus is on shared values of careerism and independence.
