I've observed Asian women doing the same thing.

| Women, ALL women, do this. Sit in a sidewalk cafe and observe. It's equal opportunity once over. |

| Do not agree that all women do this. I have a large circle of friends and we talk about this very thing. Even my Jewish friends who don't do it themselves talk about how it is common practice for Jewish women. No biggie just saying! |

The very fact that you and your friends sit around and talk about other women says volumes. I rest my case. |

I have to say thought its politically incorrect to possibly bring it up OP is not too far off base. I have experienced this myself. My sister in law being a huge culprit. She cannot help herself. Its not a pretty trait for anyone.
And I am Jewish, its other women doing nothing more than sizing up the competition! |

| Competition? Is this what we have come to in our day and age? |

| I think she is right...anyone who doesn't think women compete with other women lives on Mars. Get real! |

| I am married to a Jewish man, does that count? YES Jewish women DO this, without question. It is a "Jewish thing" and I would bet my mother in law who I love would own up to to it in two seconds flat. Doesn't' make it right and yes I find it rude but its absolutely not your imagination! |

I avoid those kind of women. Definitely respect the more polite and cultured women who know what good manners are |

Then don't move to France! Looking other women up and down is a street sport in Paris. Guess they are not very cultured . . . |

It is not a "Jewish thing!" Other women who aren't Jewish do it, too. Your husband is married to an anti Semite. That is pathetic. You should. Be ashamed of yourself. |

You don't have to agree. It's a fact that looking people up and down is not exclusively limited to Jews. You are a complete and utter ignoramus. I have witnessed non Jews looking others up and down. I went to Georgetown University, a Catholic school. Those students looked others up and down, and there is no way they were all Jewish. You know not of what you speak and you are perpetuating anti Semitic vitriol. Just stop. Bite your tongue. Can you do that? |

OMG.This is so silly! I am JEWISH AND PROUD. But yes I will tell you unequivocally, it is more prevalent ABSOLUTELY for Jewish women to do this than non Jews. It is not earth shattering but a fact, just ask anyone who lives in a big city. My mom is someone who does this, she thinks its funny...me, not so much. I personally find it assertive and rude. So be it.If its the worse thing that someone is..they are lucky.
Everyone take a chill pill and relaaaaax. |

have you ever considered it's a class and urban/suburban behavior...and that Jewish women tend to be part of the class/geographical area where this behavior is normal?
I don't do this, I don't recall my family or friends growing up doing this...I grew up in a very Jewish suburb and there definitely were super wealthy Jewish women who didn't work who were bitchy and displayed judgy behavior, but there were the same WASPY rich judgy women. I don't think it's a Jewish thing, I think it's a class thing. signed, middle class Jewish woman |
