\u2018A husband expects a yes\u2019: how wife schools are shaping submissive Christian women<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n \u201cYou\u2019re not a man!\u201d screams Cassie Howard in the latest episode of Euphoria<\/a>, HBO<\/a>\u2019s hedonistic, no-longer-high-school drama. \u201cMen provide<\/em>.\u201d Cassie, who is brilliantly played by the human discourse magnet Sydney Sweeney,<\/a> is furious with her new husband, Nate Jacobs (Jacob Elordi<\/a>). She\u2019s just found out that Nate, the all-grown-up high school jock, has been borrowing huge sums of money to fund their luxury lifestyle. In the middle of their wedding reception \u2013 a soiree she now realises has been paid for using illicit means \u2013 she is loudly berating him as their guests awkwardly pretend not to hear.<\/p>\n The wedding of Cassie and Nate was, somewhat unconventionally, revealed<\/a> months ahead of Euphoria\u2019s third season by Sam Levinson, the show\u2019s equally unconventional writer and creator. As expected, it was a cinematic and expensive-looking spectacle that descended into disaster. Yet for much of Euphoria\u2019s first three episodes, I\u2019ve been wondering what the show \u2013 now picking up five years after the last season, with the cast navigating their early 20s \u2013 is trying to say. Episode three, like its predecessors, continued a portrayal of women that feels both old-fashioned and eerily prescient, projecting a shallow, manosphere<\/a>-inflected fantasy of their motives. In a confusing jumble of plots, the only constant is an overarching disdain for the young women who made the show great.<\/p>\n
