Wow... The Slut Shaming On Monica Lewinsky... Is Eye Opening...

26. the course reality is that women are raised to do this

And to the benefit of the men in their life. It hasn't got squat to do with politics. This is what women are still raised to believe. Woman are much more critical of other women even when it let's the men in their life off the hook. I hear the most harsh criticisms and sexist expressions from women talking about other women. It's one of the reasons I've always felt more comfortable in the company of men. In my experience, men don't talk about women in sexist ways when me or other women are around, but women do.

Women happily criticize other women for the most nitpicky things... their clothes, their body, their hair, their make up or lack thereof, the way they talk, the things they say, the way they move, anything at all about how they look... everything. There are/where a few posters here that used to adore criticizing every single thing that Laura Bush wore (as if something like that even matters) all the damn time here. They're probably still on my ignore list - it drove me batty.
