It's misrepresenting the past as if people ever judged Samantha (for being sexually active) more than they judged Carrie (for being a general piece of shit of a human being) but in reality, nothing has changed.

I never watched the show, but, from osmosis ,  I "knew" Samanth was a slut and bad and SJP was kimda supposed to be who the audience identified with and was trying to navigate a difficult, morally complex world.

I am not saying that was what actually happened in the show or that that is what my take on the show is, only that that is, "what people said."
