Review

[edit]

The newspaper Libération thinks that this show imposes a "standardized image of feminity" in which a woman dresses firstly to appeal to men, pointing particularly to the title of the season 3 show "Dinner at the restaurant with your boss and his wife" and the implied idea that it is the man who has the power.[4]
