I disagree that women support other women. They're the first to throw other women under the bus.

TRP says that women always support other women and "team women" etc. I think that only happens in cases where the women have absolutely nothing to lose by supporting the other women. If a woman feels threatened she'll be the first to throw other women under the bus.

First of all, there's a stereotype that women can't be "real friends" with each other. Now, I don't know what "real friends" means and what kind of romanticized bullshit people believe about friendships but I have seen many examples of women betraying their female friends of years the moment they pose the slightest threat. If anything women are more likely to put their love interest above their friendships.

a)I had two female friends in high school. They were closer to each other than they were to me. They were friends for whole years. Here's what happened and it was disgusting. One of the girls lets call her "Efi" broke up with her boyfriend and was heart-broken for a long time. One day months after the breakup she told us he raped her. Now there's no rape hysteria in Greece so we didn't believe her (because that girl had lied many other times about other things). Anyway, a while later me and "Mary" (the other girl) started hanging out with Efi's ex the "rapist" and we were close friends with him (Efi didn't know). I specifically knew that Mary wanted to get together with the "rapist" despite him being her best friend's ex boyfriend. So eventually Mary told him Efi said he raped her (not for some noble reason but because she wanted to get together with him, lol). He didn't believe us and a while later he was together with his ex (!!) and they both stopped talking to us (despite the fact that I didn't even do anything). Now tell me is that how close friends are supposed to act?

b)When I found a boyfriend in high school, all of my "friends" abandoned me. I can somehow understand why they did that (I became colder towards them after I got a boy) but the thing is they abandoned me in a very bad way. They started spreading lies about me and turning people against me, while I had never done anything to harm them.

c)My mother never seemed to have any friends that genuinely cared about her. In fact, one of her friends literally slashed all 4 tires of my mother's car when she stopped giving her free electricity and water. (I'm not sure how my parents were giving free electricity and water to other houses but all 4 tires being slashed was no accident)

d)There is a stereotype that women slut shame more. I don't know how true it is, but it probably exists for a reason.

e) Since I used to live in a village where people believed in magic and witches, I am going to tell you women are way more likely to accuse a woman of being a witch if she seduces her husband or is very attractive or whatever.

f) When I went to take an exam for my Italian degree my teacher told me beforehand to not even think of being dressed provocatively because the examiners are usually women and they wouldn't pass me. Meanwhile he told the male students they were lucky because the female examiners would see their sons in them and pass them. Now that teacher was a sexist (not for this only, he made a lot of anti-women comments in class.) but he had a lot of experience and knew most of the examiners personally so since he said it there was probably some truth in it.

The only ones who support women no matter what are probably the hardcore feminists.
