I enjoyed this episode a lot more than most of the episodes in Season 1. The idea of dating younger men is really hip among contemporary projects since the late 90's. I think it is because we are becoming more open about relationships and realizing that gender and age don't really matter when you lust for or love someone.
I thought that the realization Carrie has about men being a drug was the best part of the episode. It was that moment in which the audience realized with her that it isn't about their age, their job, or even if they like you back, it is about the fact that all romantic relationships make you feel like you're floating on air and that feeling is addictive.
Carrie seemed to be dating the younger man for validation in herself though, where as Miranda just wanted someone who wouldn't challenge her. I think the reasons behind the girl's choices in men where a little unreasonable and over the top, but it wouldn't be SATC if there wasn't something drama-queen like in the story line.
