Why is Darren Star so obsessed with entitled white women acting grossed out by other cultures?

Star certainly has gotten into the same othering storylines in his past work, specifically on the Sex and the City series and the SATC movies. Let's not forget SATC heroine Carrie Bradshaw spent a Sad Girl Season in Paris, where she struggled as an American girl with a shitty boyfriend away from her friends. He seems to love putting privileged white women with minimal problems in the City of Lights, and in the case of Emily in Paris, it's as though Star decided to take the most rigid character in SATC (Charlotte) and create an entire series around her pushy romps through Paris.

Recall in the first SATC movie, Charlotte refuses to eat any food while the ladies are on Carrie's honeymoon in Mexico out of fear of the icky Mexican food giving her explosive diarrhea, choosing to instead eat endless chocolate pudding packs the entire trip until she ends up shitting her pants after letting a bit of shower water get in her mouth. First of all, hahahahahahahaha. Second of all, that's not the only place where the white gaze and offensive attitudes have reared their ugly head in SATC. Sex and the City 2 was an absolute racist mess with blatant anti-Muslim jokes and Samantha saying the utterly cringe-worthy line, "Lawrence of my labia." Star really doesn't have a high opinion, or actual knowledge, of foreign countries, it would seem, choosing instead to have his white protagonists be outwardly offensive, belittling, or ignorant to other cultures. That’s not to say we can’t be fascinated by or question cultures outside of our own, especially if there are traditions or beliefs that are harmful to marginalized people within it. But while doing that, it’s essential to maintain the awareness that American culture is most definitely not the standard to aspire to—and to mind your own goddamn business sometimes.
