In the '90s, there was always this continuous pitting of women against each other in the media, trying to make them battle it out.
It's sad how people want to see us females go against each other. Never been for that. Never will.
It is said that friendship between women is only a suspension of hostilities.
Girls, to me, growing up were very, very petty and didn't want me to succeed and didn't want the best for me.
Especially in this industry, women challenge men much more now because we're saying, 'We can do it, too.'
The press likes to create cat fights with girl bands.
It's such a small place, not much to do but talk and listen. The men are jealous and the women all in competition.
Women are the harshest critics of other women.
No matter how beautiful a woman might be, you're always threatened by certain... You're always threatened by other women, period.
Women didn't want to be on the stage with other women because they didn't want their bodies to be compared. They didn't want another female act opening for them because of this weird competitive and tokenistic attitude.

I hate girls that giggle all the time... You hate any girl that David looks at.

Friendship between two women is always a plot against another one.

Women compete, compare, undermine, and undercut one another - at least, that is the prevailing notion of how we interact.
I was always the youngest and I think girls, period, try to psych each other out, there are a lot of head games.
No woman has ever existed who did not know perfectly well in her heart what to expect from the superiority or inferiority of a rival.
You always hear about how women working together will catfight.
If a person's self-worth derives from being the only woman in the field, how much affection can she feel toward another woman who might challenge that claim to fame?
Women tear each other apart.
A lot of women seem to think the way to ingratiate themselves is to put down other women or backstab. That's the quickest way to be eliminated from my life - try that with me, and you're out.
There's a lot of girls in the division I really like, but I always feel like there's this underlying sense of a potential matchup, potential competition. It adds a different element.
At an early age, somehow we're programmed to view other females as threats.
