Bitches?

I am currently sitting on the train opposite a bunch of truly spiteful, mediocre looking, not so intelligent sounding young women.
They have spent the whole journey talking about this girl or that girl, even discussing gate crashing another's wedding or sending her a message asking to be bridesmaid "just to see what she'd say", whilst being apparently surprised that such and such could even get a man... Though, from the sight and sound of them, I'm convinced they are all single.

Also, spent a portion of the afternoon being updated by a friend of mine on the persistent antics of another, seemingly crazy, woman, who has spent the full 2 years that I have know my friend trying to smear her name and steal her man, all whilst trying to gain some sympathy from equally sad people over the internet.

Add that to the ongoing trials and tribulations that I have been facing at work simply because a group of females have developed this "assimilate or die" mentality and feel as though they are the law on everyone and that their say is the be all and end all in every situation.

I have to ask...

What is it about us as women that make us behave so despicably towards other women?
We really do get on bad you know.

Jealousy will always get the better of us and we seem to pride ourselves on our ability to tear another female down.

We will develop the most intricate worst laid plans to prevent a fellow sista (or "er" depending on your cultural heritage) from being happy.
The thing is, in the end, we are never actually happy. We attempt to project our negativity onto someone else, encouraging others to join us in this diversion tactic and, as a result, walk away feeling just as empty as when we started...

Eh... Go figure.
