This post is all about catty women and how you can protect yourself against them.

Catty Women

Here’s a scenario you’re probably familiar with. You have a clique of queen bees and mean girls at school or work. Moreover, they’ll see another woman outside their little group who’s happy with her life.

This lady is confident and strong. She knows who she is and what she wants. The lady may be successful at her job or have a huge bank account. Also, she may be talented, smart, have a good family life, or gasp! All of the above.

Do you think that they’ll be happy for a fellow female who managed to defy the odds? Will these women want to learn from her? And, will they see her as a role model?

Do you think they will look up to her? Most females may act like they support other women. However, do they really?

No chance. They will only hate her and wish for her downfall. Moreover, these vixens will want to tear her to pieces. They will plot against her and try to sabotage whatever success she has. It’s both sad and pathetic!

Why Many Women Resort to Catty Behavior

First, let’s find out why so many woman act so darned catty.

Catty Women:

They’re insecure with themselves.

Understand that the reason these women are so catty is because they’re highly insecure in themselves. Subconsciously, they see themselves as inferior to any woman who’s got her shit together. Therefore, they’ll do everything they possibly can to pull her down to their level.

Also, if a catty woman has a husband with a roving eye, look out if you’re the woman in his sights! Because she won’t lay into her hubby with the wandering eyes. No. She will come after you! And with a vengeance!

Catty women are mostly the passive-aggressive types. Therefore, if you happen to find yourself in their line of fire, you’ll sense it.

You’ll feel their eyes bore into you like a needle. You’ll pick up the sickening vibrations these girls put off. Also, you’ll feel the negative energy they exude grip you and try to squeeze the life out of you.

These vicious females will almost seem demonic- as if they’re possessed with an evil spirit. Therefore, if you become the target of catty women, BEWARE!

You must understand that most catty women are, in fact, women with narcissism. And there’s nothing more evil than a female with NPD.

They’re Spiteful.

These shrews will try to get information from you. Moreover, they’ll pump your friends, associates, even your family members for information about you.

They’ll warn everyone who will listen not to associate with you. Also, they’re notorious for trying to damage your good relationships.

These women will sabotage your job prospects, invade your privacy and snoop through your office and sometimes even your belongings. They do this to find anything they can use against you.

Some may even stalk you to find out where you live. Moreover, don’t put it past them to find out who your family members are. Understand that these women see you as an adversary- someone they must compete with.

Catty Women:

Jealousy and competition.

Understand that your success causes them to compare themselves to you. These women may also question their own achievements and overall value as women. Self-comparison is such a confidence-killer!

They hate you because they think you have it better than them. You can hear the venom in their voices and sense the poison in their minds.

You see clearly the ignorance in their attitudes. Also, you’ll observe their huffy impatience and haughty demeanor.

If catty women ever sink their claws into you, they’ll never let go. You’re the enemy- the usurper of their perceived girl-code.  Therefore, they’ll have a laser focus on you.

Women and girls can be worse bullies than men and boys

How do you spot these ferocious females?

Spotting them is easy. All you have to do is notice their snottiness. Their attitudes are a dead giveaway.

These girls strut around the school, workplace, or community like they’re the belles of the ball.  They have funky attitudes and usually walk around with their noses in the air.

They have their upper lips raised in contempt. Their eyes blaze under those fake eyelashes and narrowed eyebrows. Overall, they act snooty and snotty.

And the woman I mentioned earlier? The one with the ogling husband? Should it be any wonder the guy has a roving eye?

You must realize that these women are miserable human beings.  Moreover, they suck the oxygen out of every room they walk into.

You should pity and dismiss them. Never hate them because, deep down, they already hate themselves. Only they’ll never, in this lifetime, admit it.

Therefore, avoid these bitches and have nothing more to do with them. Do it not only for your sanity, but your overall safety. The further away you get from these hussies, the better.

Catty women don’t know their worth.

One fellow blogger, Petrina, made the perfect point when she quoted in her comment:

“…If a woman knows her worth, she won’t be like this. If a woman does not make an idol out of men, she won’t see other women as such a threat. Much of women’s cattiness revolves around the fact that they feel threatened that their idols (men) are going to find other women attractive and prefer them. These types of insecure women are falsely validated by men’s attention….”

Petrina’s words really drive the point home and I thank her for her comment!

Cattiness in Women Comes from One Thing- Fear and Insecurity!

What makes these damsels so dirty and trifling? Let’s sum the answers up in one word:

Fear!

Bless their pea-picking hearts! If these poor things had a modicum of self-esteem, they wouldn’t have such funky attitudes. Moreover, they would have the confidence to just relax.

This is why it’s so important to know your worth as a woman. If you do, you won’t want to make trouble for other females who rival you.

You won’t compare yourself to other women. Moreover, you won’t hate on women who may or may not have easier lives than you.

However, sad to say, you may find yourself in the crosshairs of jealous catty women who are jealous of your life.

Catty women are miserable souls.

Think about this. If these women were genuinely happy with their lives, they wouldn’t be so obsessively jealous of yours.  Catty women are insanely jealous of any woman who has her life in order and has everything going for her.

Women who are catty are usually women who are hungry for attention, especially male attention. Moreover, they’re the kind of girls you see humiliating themselves by chasing and throwing themselves at men in bars or at parties.

Understand that their snooty ways alone reveal so much about them. If they had an ounce of self-awareness,  they wouldn’t be so oblivious to it.

Sadly, these toxic broads believe that their behavior makes them look powerful and goddess-like. Also, they think that walking around with their noses in the air and upper lip snarled like a dog is cute.

In fact, many of them think that this behavior attracts men.

These Women are Thirsty!

And yes, there are people, especially guys, who are attracted to that kind of behavior in girls. It’s true that every day, you see many men fall all over themselves to get close to these bitchy gals.

Sadly, the world is full of simps.

However, you must realize that these guys have no self-esteem nor self-respect. Therefore, the man-eaters they crawl behind will only chew them up and spit them out!

Yes, each of these fawning boys look like and put on the facade of the alpha male. However, under the surface, they’re only beta males who are insecure.

Any man who puts up with a catty woman has serious doubts about his masculinity.

In other words, if these guys were cars, they would be shiny, flashy muscle-cars that look sharp and fast on the outside. However, they’d would be total wrecks under their hoods. They wouldn’t make it out of the driveway before sputtering out and breaking down.

On the other hand, true alpha men would never be such gluttons for punishment. They wouldn’t bow down to these shrews, kiss their behinds, and become, for lack of a better term, “whipped.”

Instead, they would ditch these broads… fast!

Why? Because a guy with any common sense knows that the only power these women have is power others give them.

Catty Women vs Quality Women

Any quality woman- a woman who is worth her salt- desires a partner she can respect. She has no time for some spineless wimp she can walk on.

Also, men of quality desire a quality woman of strength they too can respect and who respects them back.

And when a catty, insecure woman has her partner, or other guys groveling at her feet as she’s walking over him, it says one of two things about her.

  1. She is a controlling, domineering shrew who fears a strong, secure, self-respecting partner. Therefore, she actually prefers a boy who’s a sniveling weakling she can keep under the heel of her high-heeled shoe.
  2. A strong, secure, and self-respecting man of quality would never in this lifetime have her nor even consider her! Ouch!

A quality woman knows there’s no need to act catty to prove anything to anyone. Therefore, that’s a woman who’ll be successful in achieving a relationship with a partner she can respect and who respects her back.

This is a girl who will never get into a relationship with a guy who’s a wimp. Before there’s love, there must first be respect!

Catty Women are Fearful Women

In contrast, catty women are fearful women. They fear strong men who have the balls to put them in their place if they ever get out of line. These girls are truly pathetic.

They’re only beta-females who, by their actions and behavior, reduce themselves to the lowest common denominator. Sadly, these women are many- they’re a dime a dozen.

However, women who are confident and have their mental stuff together are few. They’re rare. And anything that is rare is and always will be of higher value.

In fact, it’s priceless. The Law of Scarcity dictates this.

Therefore, if you are one of those rare and special women, keep doing what you’re doing. And if it seems that so many other females are working like the devil to bring you down, know that they are already beneath you.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t put in so much effort to tear you apart and bring you to their level.

Always remember that because you are rare, you hold more value than your mean girl bullies ever will. Believe that with every fiber of your being!

Here are 5 Ways to Deal with their Behavior.

  1. Let them run their mouths and act ignorant if they want. They’re only revealing to everyone who they are.
  2. Stay above them. Don’t react to their childishness.
  3. Know without a doubt that you’re above them because you don’t have to resort to such petty behavior.
  4. Act indifferent and dismissive toward these women.
  5. Continue to do your thing and do it confidently.

Doing these things will get to them more than anything else. More importantly, it’ll make you feel better about yourself. Therefore, rise above them and stay above them.

This post is all about catty women and why they resort to bullying other women.

Male and Female Bullies: The Differences

Female bullies can be the most vicious because they seem to be better at going undetected than male bullies. Granted, there are always exceptions to this rule, but this is true for the most part. Male bullies lean more toward outward physical bullying and females lean more toward bullying of the psychological variety.

Female Bullies:

I’ll say again but more descriptively. Although there are exceptions, most are passive-aggressive and commit much of their bullying on a psychological level. However, thanks to radical feminism and the moral decline in today’s young girls and women, physical assaults perpetrated by females are increasing at an alarming rate.

Females bully by Dividing and Conquering – attacking the targets’ relationships. Girls and women use smear campaigns, gossip, rumors, and witch hunts. These tactics are all designed to turn everyone against the target- ’Isolation of the target’.

They also use projection- projecting all of their own shortcomings onto the target. Bullies do have flaws and their greatest fear is having them exposed. Projection is the best way to keep their own imperfections hidden.

Therefore, they project their imperfections onto the target. Also, these bullies will use distraction- distracting others’ attention away from their own shortcomings and evil deeds. Bullies do this by pointing out the negative qualities in their targets.

Psychological v/s Physical Bullying

Girls and some boys, use psychological warfare. Psychological bullying includes but is not limited to exclusion, dirty looks, taunts, insults, rumors and lies. Also, it can include thievery, invasion of the target’s privacy and destruction of the target’s property and relationships.

If this does not work, they then may resort to violence although not as often as male bullies. If females want to cause bodily harm to their target, they are more likely to persuade someone else to do their violence for them.

They may send a male friend or a bigger and tougher female friend, to catch the target alone and physically assault them. Moreover, they get them to comply by offering incentives. These girls may offer either illicit sex to their male friend to get them to do what they want. On the other hand, they may offer a tougher female friend inclusion into their particular clique and the chance to climb up the social ladder.

Passive-aggressive bullies may also offer money.

By primal instinct, females are nurturers.  Nature has hardwired girls and women toward maintaining relationships whether they be familial, friendships, or romantic. Many young girls plan to eventually get married and have families of their own.

Thus, female bullies aim to sabotage the target’s relationships. Most girls and women, from the time they are small, dream of one day finding a mate and having children because they have an instinct to nurture. They are usually the caretakers of the family and home.

Covert v/s Overt Bullying

Therefore, it should not be any surprise that female bullies are notorious for calling their targets names like ‘whore’, ‘slut’, ‘tramp’, ‘floosy’ and other names which attack the femininity and virtues.

Moreover, anytime you as a young lady are called either one of these names, there is an even deeper meaning behind it. Therefore, here’s the hidden meaning. It’s that you are not marriageable. Also, you are not worthy of a mate or children, and you are not considered to be a woman.

A female bully wants to brainwash you. Hence the reason why her attacks are so vicious and repetitive. She wants to convince you that you are worthless and will stop at nothing to make you believe it!

toxic brainwashing

Additionally, she knows that if she can make you believe the lies, there is a strong chance that you will live up to them. We are what we believe. This vicious shrew knows that if she could drum it into your head, she will succeed in breaking your spirit. Thus, making you prove her right.

Females Aren’t Always the Weaker Sex

 Get this straight. Female bullies WANT you to live up to the names that they call you. If they call you a whore, what they really want is for you to BE one.

So don’t live up to it! Show her up! However, she will not give up so easily. Girls tend to hang on to their hatred of another girl to the point of obsession. The bullying becomes a ritual. And when you stand up to a bully, don’t expect things to get better anytime soon.

Male bullies:

Because nature has hardwired most males to be the hunter and gatherer, guys tend to be more physical. And why not? Back during prehistoric times, males had to hunt and bring home the food to feed their families. Often, they had to fight off wild animals and human males of other groups in order to survive.

Although there are exceptions, males are more likely to use physical aggression. Young men are expected to be strong and tough…to display manhood. Therefore, if the target is another male, the boy bully will not only use his fists, but will also try to feminize their target by repetitively emasculating him.

Emasculation of Male Targets

Male bullies often call their targets names like, “sissy”, “pussy”, “bitch” and other names which attack the male pride and cause them to feel less like men. They try to strip their target of his manhood.

And if the male target speaks out against the treatment, the male bully will trivialize it by referring to the target as a “whiner” and tell him to “toughen up”, or “man up”. The male bully may also accuse his male victim of going against what is seen as “man-code” if he dares to report the bullying.

And male bullies who are physically violent usually beat up on males and females. However, there are a few who are so cowardly that they’ll never stand up against another guy but only beat up on girls.
