Do you ever listen to your unsuccessful friends advice?

I've noticed a lot of female friends of mine seem to always take advice from women who are single with children, extremely undesirable in multiple ways, and spend most of their time trying to highly negative things or make up negative things about people they feel threatened by the attractiveness of. My male friends don't have this problem and we mostly spend out time talking positively about each other to such a degree that when I come around people I don't know, they immediately have a positive first impression of me. I know lots of women try to collectivize because they feel safer that way and they also try to vet others to prevent bad apples, however it seems today that every female group not only has bad apples, but the bad apples are in charge. Could this be the emergent properties of girl bosses? They're also mostly single mothers so it baffles me at how damaged females today seem to be relationship wise despite men having much higher sewer slide rates.
