I don't understand this question at all, but in general, "~not like the other girls~" is used to refer to female characters who are presented as different from, and superior to, other female characters because they have traits that aren't stereotypically coded as feminine. So, for instance, someone who wears t-shirts and is in the bleachers, as compared to someone who wears short skirts and is cheer captain.

It's not just about being different from other characters.

But she is literally that was with EVERYONE in the town. That is her whole thing.

That's my point. I don't see how Belle is portrayed as being superior to other women due to having traits that are perceived as non-feminine (she's as feminine as any other Disney princess) nor do I see how the story treats feminine traits in general as inferior. She's portrayed as being superior to everyone in her town because she's curious and open-minded where the townsfolk are shallow and judgmental, but that's an issue that doesn't have anything to do with femininity, unless you think that it's being not like the other girls to not want to give up your dreams to marry a sexist asshole.

The only thing I might concede is that Gaston's fangirls are portrayed negatively and stereotypically, but they're supposed to be bad because they idolize Gaston despite (or even because of) his shitty personality (which is something the entire town is portrayed negatively for), not because they're feminine and Belle isn't.
