...so that TV mirrors the 'Guardian's' feminist output..?
In a recent interview, Waller-Bridge said, “I know a lot of my female peers feel really angry. I think that a woman’s response at first is to feel guilty and apologetic about it without knowing why … The idea of the ‘angry young man’ is so deeply embedded [in culture] but the angry young woman seems never to be addressed.” With Fleabag, she’s done just that.Compulsive viewing ahead, I bet.

Shouldn't that word be 'repulsive'?
Another reason not to watch television.

If I recall correctly the Angry Young Men of the 50s were middle class or in a privileged position, the only genuine working class writer was Shelagh Delaney. I doubt if Fleabag has a fraction of Shelagh Delaney's talent.
I thought feminists were always angry.
"Shouldn't that word be 'repulsive'?"
It's more accurate, certainly...
"Another reason not to watch television."
Or to watch Netflix!
"I doubt if Fleabag has a fraction of Shelagh Delaney's talent."
Talent is sooooo last century!
"I thought feminists were always angry."
Quite!
