Another point that has bothered me or a little while about the place of women on this show is that they are all looking for their “happy ending” and somehow, the only way to achieve that goal, is to find a men, settle down, get married and start poppin’ babies.
Also on this note, this is heavily what the show is about. True love, and hope. That is the basis for the entire show. Every character, not just the women, want true love. Because it is the most powerful magic in the world. For some, it’s not just a romantic true love. It can be the love of family, as well. And I agree with Crest that saying the ideals of family being “conservative” ideals is ridiculous. Everyone wants to have a family, parents. Not necessarily children, I certainly don’t, but why do you suddenly shame a character who finds a love for a child she wasn’t ready for before? I like that Emma’s focus is on herself, friends/family and her child, and not on boning every random guy that comes along like most female main characters do on other shows.
