Why do some women say they don’t like other women?

[Anonymous]

I find this soooooo rude. I may as well be a man I act like one, I work like one. I get a lot of male attention. I don’t claim to be “one of the guys” and ignore other girls. You know why? Because I’m not an asshole. And you know what? Guys also like me better for it.

The amount of times one of my guy friends has brought a girl in to the friend circle and she will state “I don’t like girls” and then proceed to ignore me or other girls I’m with it’s just plain annoying.

Lemme teach you how the male brain works in this scenario. You ignore and push the girls out. Girl is stood on her own. Guys will go to that girl and check she’s ok it’s what they do. Then you degrade her and call her easy for chatting to your guy but you set the scenario up!

You can’t blanket “all girls” and I feel those girls are insecure and do it to get rid of competition

Any thought?

I don't have anything to say the question, but I kinda had an experience

So my ex was a coworkers of mine. We started chatting and then he asked if I wanted a ride because I don't drive. I said sure. Apparently he had another female friend who he took home too.
She was always in the front seat, but when I got there he asked her to get in the back

He started dropping me off more and she stayed in the back
Slowly she and I started to become friends
Then she told me that she got jealous because she got pushed to the back
Mine you she didn't have romantic feelings for him and I decided to date him.

There are so many bigger problems in the world.
Do your thing. We only have power over ourselves. Allow others to do theirs.

I’ll never understand that. Being competitive with another is waste of energy. I feel with having a girlfriend, it’s important she gets along with everyone, female members of my family etc. if she has all guy friends, she’s not the one for me

[In_Trance]

For the same reason some men say they don't like other men

[Finchie40]

Unfortunately a lot of people in general are jealous and insecure of the same sex, especially if they are around someone they like or interested in , Guys’ and Girls’ do this all the time , because they are jealous and insecure. Most of the girls’ I have dated or been in a relationship with hated the fact that I had some female friends or if another female approached me and talked to me , asking a question about something , they assumed I was up to no good or the other girl was up to no good and trying to get with me , so she would instantly get mad and upset and jealous at me for being friends’ with them or talking to them , she would have this pissed off look on her face and I would say what’s wrong? And she would say you know what’s wrong? Leaving me dumbfounded , Ummm she just asked me if I knew where the bathroom was , etc.. So most guys’ and girls’ usually don’t like each other, if they are around their partner , they automatically assume they are trying to make a move on their partner. And unfortunately that can be the reason why as well. I witnessed guys’ and girls’ breaking up with each other because one of them had a conversation with the opposite sex , they were so upset and insecure , and acted like they owned their partner. I was at this bar one night and I struck up a casual conversation with a girl basically asking her what she was drinking because it looked good , she politely told me what it was and before I knew it her boyfriend was up on my face and said that’s my girlfriend with this pissed off look on his face , I said that’s cool nice to meet you , I wasn’t trying to start a fight but I immediately felt bad for that girl for having a boyfriend that insecure, so I grabbed my drink and said nice meeting ya and walked away , as I walked away , she told him it’s over between them and that she no longer wants to be with him , I felt she did the right thing.

Probably because if you have a successful attractive male.. plenty of other woman are willing to try and steal him, aka fuck him. That's life, I never trust a chick who always wants to hang around with men on a regular basis and I sure asf would not date a guy with lots of girl friends or has a female best friend, that's just not my cup of tea. If a chick doesn't look like a tomboy and doesn't have real things in common with the guys then I am always suspicious why they like being around these men, besides that they crave being the centre of their attention? Hence why most girls don't like "that girl" lol

[ohsheeT]

When I meet a girl and I like her I have to be honest with myself and say OK, yes, she's hot. She's nice. She's cool. I wanna have sex with her but knowing that I like her and I want to have sex with her doesn't mean that the relationship would last that long because she's not my type in that way.

So I have to ask myself. Do I want her just to have sex and then break up and hate each other? Or do I wonder as a good friend for a long time? And and I always picked a good friend


The thing is, I would go out with these girls, you know, to hang out or go to a club or whatever as friends and then if another girl gets involved, it's like they hate each other. Who's that? What are you doing with her?\n And that drives me crazy. Why they do that? I have no clue

But for the most, it seems like almost all girls are that way. There are a few that are not and I love being around those girls.

[FreyaRed]

I get male attention even if I don't provoke to get any. This is often reason enough for some specific type of women to attack me. Those women see male attention as some kind of achievement, some kind of currency they want to trade with and I come and steal it. Other type is those who seek someone to fight with. They don't peak girls who look less attractive then they are they pick girls above their level. Their motto "Value me on hand of enemies I have". It's from my perspective Kindergarten psychology but I can't allow myself to lose situational awareness in many situations.
I've been trained involuntary by my narcissistic mother to deescalate in a way without showing weakness but some thing I had to learn the hard way either.
Generally the more emotional self-control you show the less likely you will be picket as target. I use the therm emotional self-control not self-confidence because this isn't something that deters someone who looks for a conflict.

Apparently it is very competitive and political being a girl. I have lost count of the number of girls that have said that to me and bemoan how difficult it is to have a female friend.

I guess every new girl coming into a friendship circle is a disruptor.

It also seems that the first thing a girl thinks of if she has a fight with another girl is to rope some guy into the fight.

But it is a female power play over other girls to get guys to like them

The sisterhood is not what it is cracked up to be

[DishLady]

Some women get A LOT of flack from other women, so they avoid having female friends, having had too many negative experiences.


To put it a different way, is someone smacked you every time you approached a certain thing would you still approach it? No….


So now we have the “block” and “unfollow” features… thank God.

[OneViewpoint]

Yeah, we guys notice the way (some) women treat other women poorly. The catty remarks, gossiping, excluding each other, flirting with married men or guys in a relationship. Mostly I just scratch my head and stay the fuck away from women who do that sort of thing.

And yeah, you're right. When a group of men see one woman being ganged up on or shunned, our natural response is to surround the victim and create a protective barrier to make her feel welcome.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Anyone & everyone has the prerogative to like & dislike anyone regardless of gender.

It's human nature.

I know lots of people (both men & women) dislike me, one way or another.

That doesn't bother me.

I, too, dislike other people (man or woman) and my disdain for them isn't a secret.

[beenherebefore]

The probably didn't have the best experiences with other women. I personally grew up with lots of jealous and competitive girls/women around me although I would never say I don't like other women I always feel a bit skeptical about most of them and prefer to prefer to keep a certain distance. I have a few female colleagues a get along with but I would not confide in them.

[noohair]

This goes back to caveman days. Women competed for fixed resources in a particular area. If a woman found something good, she would keep it to herself. Men had to cooperate to bring down large game, so the learned to put personality aside. That is why women hold grudges more extremely than men.

[BeenThereLovedIt]

Frankly, any girl who doesn't like other girls, has no BFF, etc.. is a psycho that will only bring drama and pain to the poor bastard that is with her

[Anonymous]

Girls in boy circles are this way. They like male attention, so they end up competing with others females in the group or feeling threatened or jealous because now men won’t give them all the attention.

[Paris13]

It's a veryyy competitive world, girls can be catty... Just humannature. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[mysteriousNicholas]

Aren't most women competing for the prime men 🔵 👀 ? And that's why women are competitive

[AliceGregory]

Because too many of us are conditioned to be competitive versus supportive of each other.

[MannMitAntworten]

I thought this was part of the argument for this thing called, “toxic masculinity”. Not that either was ever part of my own conditioning.

[Joshydavid25]

Its definitely not conditioning.. It's natural.. Lol.. Women aren't a group, their individuals, a lot of who don't like each other for one reason or another..

[Anonymous]

they dont have to like,,, some women are seriously so annoying

[Allmenrsick]

A lot of girls are stealing. Its a fierce competition. You can't even blink of an eye. The next moment its gone

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

You sound a bit like a pick me

[Asker]

Oh hun they always pick me 😉

[Batsy01010101]

I don't pick you i pick who i want not someone with an oversized ego

[Nikki1989]

It is usually driven by jealousy.

[AviatorTom]

Another woman may be viewed as competition.

[Braylee]

it gives the same energy as a jealous cat

[DrPepper12]

Cuz bitches get stitches...

[lucas262]

,, one of the guys,, is only earned not taken

[Anonymous]

You’re probably right

[Anonymous]

Probably because they don't like them.

[Fashionista7]

Society causes us to fight with each other.

[MannMitAntworten]

Society does? Hows does society go about this?

[Fashionista7]

By having us fight each other so they have their way.

[MannMitAntworten]

As a member of society, must have missed this society meeting. Never been privy to hearing such a thing. Only ever seen two women fight with one another … strangely, over me and who was really my friend. Nuttiest thing I ever witness within women. . Just friends with both and I walked away wanting nothing to do with it. Anyway, a bit at a loss over society wishing you to fight each other or it having their way.

[MasterKS]

competitors.
