WHAT SHE SAID....TAMARA TATTLES ON THE RHOA....WHAT BRAVO NEEDS TO DO TO UPGRADE THE SHOW

Stop forcing the cast into ridiculous misogynist stereotypes. The white trash whore with a heart of gold, the black neck-rolling buffoon, the child R&B star with a sex drive in overtime, the NFL groupie wife still digging for gold after the divorce, the brainless model, the "black southern belle," all of these a harsh caricatures. Only a Jewish gay man from New York could even conceptualize a black southern belle. Someone should have at least researched that one. The manner in which you encourage each of the housewives to use these labels against each other and yet wear their own as if it truly represents any of them is cruel. It also suggests that actual women who were not being encouraged to degrade themselves would be somehow less interesting. Your producer tweeting after the finale that is was his best work ever, speaks volumes. Twenty episodes in the same season is probably at least five too many. I get that this is a way for Bravo to pay the housewives more with subsequent seasons, but be honest. you didn't have enough interesting stuff for twenty episodes. Which left you tossing in a bunch of stuff haphazardly at the end. This season should have either ended in South Africa or had a one episode wrap-up. perhaps with a staged dinner event where the whole cast sits down together and acts civilized. Select some women with educations, interesting lives and personal integrity. Felons, strippers, prostitutes, and gold diggers are not what we want to see. I suppose you will never care or understand that until we stop watching. The blame lies with us for accepting your image of us.
