The video ignited speculations that the entire ordeal wasn’t real, as a person commented: “Oh it’s not real at least it was funny.”

“This cannot be real lmao,” someone wrote.

‘If some women snap under the pressure [of planning a wedding], it is hardly surprising, but the trope of bridezilla says more about how we view “women’s work”.’ Great piece on wedding planning, and the emotional labor, double standards, and sexism that’s wrapped up in it.https://t.co/12yR309I6R

A bridezilla is a bride whose behavior when planning her wedding is demanding, obsessive, and often unreasonable,GoHenexplains. However, in recent years, the term has been linked to gender bias and sexism.

Dr. Jocelyn Charnas, PhD, a clinical psychologist (also dubbed “The Wedding Doctor”), argued that the term vilified women for having standards and expectations for their weddings.

She toldThe Knotin 2022: “I am very much in favor of losing the term bridezilla.

“It’s denigrating and pathologizing what really is a normal process of responding to a high level of stress. And, most basically, it’s a sexist term.”

“Just say no?” a reader commented
