I started thinking.... I know that a lot of girls (and guys for that matter) dont really care for me. But theyre usually the ones who don't know me more than rumours or a first time aquaintance. And Ive been told that its because Im very outspoken. Not necessarily that these women don't agree with what Im saying, but speaking your mind is a show of confidence. And confident women are (usually) looked upon differently than confident men. Confident men are go-getters and courageous.... whereas confident women are just plain *****es (for lack of a better word). And it can be seen as a threat by other women. So if youre like me, and dont really have a filter haha, then that could be another reason.

And I agree, if we all quit being so petty and focused on the good in each other and not competition, we would be a lot farther along then we are. Sadly enough thats a lot of the reason it took women so long to get the vote, equal rights in the office etc... No matter how hard we try, we always find a way to make it a competition.

And (im a science nerd) if you think about it from an evolutionary stand point it makes sense to feel like youre in competition and to think that way because thats how were "programmed" to survive. Not that its right... just saying.
