Is that apply to majority of women characteristics?

I noticed, most of those women I knew, or befriend with, they have this keen observation of another woman. They will do competition, and keen observation whether she can be friend or enemy. One time, we sat with my female co - worker at the cafeteria for break time, she pointed out to me another lady from another department, she surely look pretty in my opinion, but my co - worker can give me full description of what this lady is like, and whether she is good or bad in person. On another occasion, my female cousin also had done the same thing; and it seems to me majority of them might have this tendency of observing other women, and they constantly do this comparison thing on their head. What do you think?

i agree. you are 100% correct. all the women have the same tendency.when men look at women, that is of attraction on opposite gender. but when the women look at women, their point of view is different. the way of observing by women is different because of jealous. it is very rare to hear that a woman praise other woman. women never accept other women equal or superior to them by any means. According to each woman they are important than any other woman in the world.

Thats because women think with their emotions not their logic. Men think with pure logic. Also, because women think the way they do, they can cause so many problems. They always seem to be in competition with each other. I find that to be a strange phenomenon. It is strangely odd, don't you think? It's not that they have an insight or the ability to read people, it is pure emotions that drive women. Even though they say they understand logic, they look at everything through emotions. They truly do not understand pure logic. They look at us men as we're crazy or something. Believe me, I know, I was married for seventeen years. I was never understood. It's as if they need to learn how to think logically. But whatever you do, do not get involved in any dispute they may have with another woman. You will be blamed for starting the whole thing. Let them fight it out.

Women are always comparing themselves some of that is nature, some of that is marketing, and some of it is society, and some of it is peer pressure. Men just look at women as a friend or as an object of desire. Women look at other women in many other ways like you said we judge alot, though we tend to judge ourselves more harshly many times than we judge others. Sometimes that judgement against ourselves turns into envy of what we don't have.

Ha ha, I like to think I am observant in general. I am not all that competitive with other women though - if I was, I would never win! . I think we all have a competitive edge in us - and for some women, breaking down OTHER women's appearances is how they feel self-esteem for themselves. It's kind of sad, really. But guys do it too, in different ways (not ALL Guys), but like competing in how 'macho' they are.

kingparker Everyone is different. I think women often evaluate other woman and compare themselves. If they become nasty it could be a reflection of their own insecurity but just observing and making neutral comments can also be a way of measuring themselves and wishing to better themselves...
