[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s because women don’t have as much power as men do, and a lot of the power they do have comes from the men in their lives, particularly the men that raise them and the men that they marry.  You can say it ain’t so, and it may be changing, but right now, it’s still a fact.

And so this means that:

1) Women are generally more amiable, get along better with people, and place more value on friendships than men do.  When you have less power, friendships are more important.  (I suppose that I am mostly talking about white men here...men who are in minority groups place more value on relationships). IRL, engendering friendships might look like bringing food over when someone has a new baby or stopping to say hello.  On a message board, it looks more like joining the pile up on a poster or strongly identifying with one group vs another (redshirting vs not or preschool vs daycare).

2) [b]Women start competing with each other for the attention of men from a pretty young age.  Maybe 12 or 13.  If a woman (or girl) is desired by a powerful or popular man, then she becomes the most powerful person in her social group.  (See every movie made about high school with a female protagonist.)  I think this leads to some of the “backstabbing” kind of behavior and just general nastiness of girls beginning at about that age.  [/b]

And they all want to f@@k her husband or boyfriend out of some sick jealousy thing.  To put in her place, boost their shitty low self esteem by thinking the guy wants something more than just the easy lay they are offering.[/quote]

Yeah, PP is describing a situation full of mean women but I'm not so sure she understands she is definitely one of them! Not excusing sleeping with married men (don't do this) but women who are married to high status men and then run around accusing everyone else of wanting to seduce them away have a ton of problems and are laying the blame on other women which is not where it belongs (maybe look a little more critically about why your man apparently has zero agency in this scenario because, uh, if he cheats that's really on him).[/quote]

Women excusing other women for sleeping with a married men and if anyone says it’s a trash move, they are misogynistic.  Cheating men are awful and so are the women that know he’s married and has kids.  Do better than the male gender.  Instead they sink to the same level.[/quote]
