Part 6/12:
The speaker criticizes Devon for her approach to marriage and divorce, framing her decision as rooted in selfishness and superficiality. "She didn’t just decide not to settle; she decided she’s strong enough to prioritize her feelings and appearance over her commitments," the commentary notes. The deeper critique lies in how modern women are portrayed—pursuing personal happiness at the expense of loyalty, duty, and stability.

It references childhood upbringing—where girls are told they matter more, deserve everything, and are entitled to happy endings—arguing that these beliefs distort expectations and threaten genuine relationships.
