In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Lipstick Jungle indulges in early 'girlboss' themes and places modern empowerment front and center, sometimes at the expense of traditional narratives and pluralism. Not the wokest out there, but definitely on the trend.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Lipstick Jungle puts career-driven women at the forefront, often making identity-based struggles central to narrative conflict. While it does develop personalities, some storylines appear to elevate empowerment messaging over nuanced character arcs, which could feel forced for viewers seeking more grounded storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional relationships and family dynamics are often re-examined or placed in a modern, sometimes critical light. Masculinity is somewhat sidelined, with male characters often eclipsed by the ambitious female leads. The show seems to question longstanding norms with little concern for balancing perspectives.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

While not as ideologically uniform as more recent series, alternative viewpoints, especially more traditional worldviews, are mostly absent or depicted as out-of-touch. The urban, careerist perspective dominates without much substantive challenge.
