It's officially Fall, and you know what that means 😉 It's time to revisit Gilmore Girls! This is my breakdown of the concerning "cool girl" trope in the show. Rory and Lorelai downplay their own femininity and whilst the show celebrates their "cool" qualities, the series does so whilst bringing down other women who don't fit this mold.
