I meant more that women are women's worst enemies sometime, but I know I am too, a lot of the time!
I am guilty of ending up staying in because I look 'fat' or my hair won't work - why care so much? Because I know I'll be judged by my looks first, and the rest later. And I know I have bitched about what other girls are wearing in clubs, and, really, I think it all comes from my own insecurities about my own body.
Cov_cloud made an interesting point about women being actively encouraged to hate other women, and, in a way, I guess we also hate aspects of ourselves which don't conform to what we are lead to believe is the 'idea' way to look.
