@du badu badu jealousy in a romantic relationship is not a good thing. it's very bad, actually. it can lead to abusive behaviour. portraying it as something to be happy about in a ficitonal story is bad for young girls who've never had a relationship before (and even older women who've never had a relationship before) because they'll think it's good for their boyfriend to be jealous of every single man they talk to.
she's talking about hiring an extremely qualified candidate and even gets mad at him for discriminating against the guy, but it's portrayed as cute that he's jealous. imagine a girl in real life whose boyfriend gets mad at her every time she talks to a male coworker, even if it's just about work or small talk. the boyfriend will either yell at the girl who did nothing wrong, which in some cases escalates to violence, or he starts harassing the other guy, which can also escalate into violence. either way, the boyfriend doesn't trust her to stay in the relationship and assumes she'll cheat on him with every guy she meets.
tl;dr stop telling girls that a jealous boyfriend is good. your boyfriend should not control you. you should be able to have friends (and coworkers) who are male.
