Also, the writing is sharp enough that I can connect myself with just about every male character, (sans F Murrary Abraham, though I do like The Godfather) for better or worse. I think that's what good writing can do, at it's best, is present flawed people, and have you connect.
I'm extremely well read, to just put it bluntly, from philosophy, to fiction, to true crime, classic literature, whatever, so I have read a lot on gender, and women's lit. I read Jia Tolentino, Amia Sirvansian, Roxanne Gay, Rebecca Traister, to name a few, I read different kinds of feminist theory and positions, and I agree with a lot of it, but most women I know, date/love/sleep with? Not at all. They 100% believe in gender roles. None of them are as educated as Harvard, Yale, NYU, but all went to good/decent state/UC schools. So some of that highly educated NY elite stuff they just could not give a fukk about.
I also come from a background of no college, going to jail, early and often, and crime, so I'm no effeminate geek, that anyone is gong to mock, but I get the disconnect on some level.
I try to know my audience a bit better, (than that kid) and realize that everyone has different experiences and formed beliefs, and not everyone is going to take the time to research and read books to try and form an educated opinion, they just go with their gut.
When the shows dips into relationship norms, it's compelling, somewhat, to see the different often twisted dynamics that go into these relationships, even among outwardly successful couples. I never realized how people thought and acted like that, until I was older. It was never something I did.
