Female: Friend or Foe???

Females have the tendency to support, understand and nourish each other in a way no man can and ever will be able to, but women all have the power to intimidate, humiliate and utterly destroy each other. How can we be so capable of being both at the same time? And how can we possibly be able to do this to this to a person with whom we consider our friend?

This is a question I ask myself time and time again, since the early ages of pre-school up to now. Every time I allow myself to become close, intimate and trusting with another women, I end up disappointed in them. Am I unable to form meaningful, lasting friendships with them? Maybe? But when I question other women about this issue, I find that I am really not alone. Many other women that I know have voiced the same concerns to me. So do why to we continue to hurt each other when we should be supporting our friends?

I guess after what happened a while ago at work, I finally understand why we hurt and have the ability to hurt so deep. This wasn’t the first time an incident at my work occurred similar to this, but it is the first time I finally began to understand it…

The truth is many women are just jealous and insecure. For example, the girl at my work a few weeks ago brought something up in front of others only to bring a painful reaction. She did this under the disguise of “being my friend”. However, the information she revealed to me was only given with the intension of hurting and humiliating me and she truly would of, if I let her, but I did not.

Women who do this are insecure and jealous and generally of women who aren’t necessarily more beautiful than them, but more confident and intelligent. This is an insecure woman’s method of defense to protect themselves from their own humiliation because face it, they feel that bad about themselves. Women who are strong, secure and intelligent need to recognize these inferior bitches, by calling them on it honestly to their faces. We need to be open and honest and tell them that they are acting on their own insecurities and that they are immature. We in fact are the stronger ones and we should start letting them all know.
