Let's drop the discussion about Africa, India, China, etc. That has absolutely nothing to do with this thread.

I'm trying to express, and invite discussion of, my understanding of the core message of "Dawson's Creek" in its cultural context: that message, in my view, entails both sympathy for Dawson's fantasy of marrying his childhood friend and awareness that he must give it up. That's not very complicated. And this board seems to have no more appropriate thread on which to do it.

I can certainly appreciate the fact that Dawson let go of his tired notion that he and Joey are soulmates. But not everyone is empathetic to his fantasy simply because it's not very realistic today. At least in America. That's the only country I can vouch for.
If you're ever unsure of where your message will fit, you can always use the
general discussion thread.
