S/O Are women threatened by other women who are sexually aggressive?

I can think of one time in my life when I felt threatened by a sexually aggressive woman, and that was because the sexual aggression was directed at my boyfriend. I was sitting right next to him and she climbed up in his lap and pulled down her shirt and pants to show him her sexy lingerie. Is it catty of me to call her disrespectful and pathetic?

"Disrespectful" is certainly an appropriate description. "Pathetic" is much more questionable. In your view, why would she be an object of pity?

DP. I pity anyone over the age of four who pulls their own pants down in public. That is not a power position.

1. They think I'm after their guy. I've never cheated or been the other woman (this was more in college though)
2. They think I'm faking it. Nope, I really enjoy sex.
3. They think I was either sexually traumatized or have low self steem and seek out male approval. Neither are true.
4. This likely doesn't have to do with my sexual aggression, but I tend to get along with men better than women.
5. My favorite and one that I've only seen once or twice...that I'm cheapening the feminism movement/I'm an embarrassment to feminists. Never understood that argument

It used to bother me when I was younger. But then I realized the beauty of being in charge of your sexuality. And DH certainly doesn't complain haha.

This says much, MUCH more about you than it does about anyone else. If that's the attitude you approach life with, of course you're going to encounter friction. What an incredibly weird thing to say

It's not a weird thing to say at all. A lot has to do with social constructs, but on the whole, men tend to be more direct, and women tend to be more passive-aggressive. For some women, it's far easier to deal with men, even men at their worst, because at least they know where they stand. It's far trickier navigating the social dynamics of a group of women than it is navigating the social dynamics of a group of men. I don't think it's biological. I think it's how boys and girls are socialized. And for some women, it's just far easier to deal with men, even very aggressive men, than it is to deal with the subtle aggression you find in groups of women. There's a reason the term "mean girls" exist.

And I'm not PP. I wouldn't say I get along with one sex better than the other, but I think it's definitely more straightforward dealing with men than it is with women. I've also never seen quite the manipulation and group shunning of a woman from a group of men the way I've seen it from a group of women.

This pp is so astute. I have noticed this too. Sometimes men are much easier to spend time with.

You can't rely on them to understand or anticipate your needs the way a female friend can. That's why it is good to have friends of both genders. In my experience, when the sh*t hit the fan, it was my girlfriends who rallied around me and the men were AWOL.

The opposite for me. I will say women tend to put up with drama queens while men will not.
