ok I do have some experience that might shed some light on this situation. as many of you know I was a truck driver for 8 yrs. 4 of those years I trained other drivers. my first 2 students were female. One thing I learned is women are very competitive. It was horrible to the point I finally told our training dept I would no longer train women. maybe we are all feeling silent competition between women. I saw it all the time in the work force. just a thought and my obersvations
