My mom had a female friend from work who said that my mom was basically her only female friend. She also said she really wished she had more female friends, but for some reason women didn't seem to like her. My mom pointed out to me, later, that this made sense to her because on a conventional attractiveness scale, this woman could easily have been a model. So men probably gravitated toward her while other women were tended to be jealous of her, or intimidated by her. And surprise, all this is also because of misogyny, but not from her.

Also, this woman was very sweet to my mom, me, and everyone as far as I knew, so I wouldn't believe women just didn't like her because of her personality or that she was only nice to guys.

Yeah I knew a guy who was basically the male version of this woman. He was drop-dead gorgeous, and sensitive, and sweet, and... had absolutely no male friends whatsoever. Still doesn't as far as I know. I think guys assume that if he's their friend, any woman they bring around will want to be with him and not with them. Which is a shitty attitude, but it's probably what a lot of the women who met this women were thinking, too.

I have a friend like this too. She's model-gorgeous and also really sweet but has been subject to the worst cattiness from other women, and the only explanation I can come up with is that it's because she IS gorgeous.

That's really sad. I never understood why women and girls would be catty to each other over perceived attractiveness. I had it happen to me sometimes when I was a waitress, although usually it took me awhile to figure out when a woman was being snide to me (because she was with her male partner and felt threatened). It's awful how our patriarchal society encourages that sort of viciousness.

I'm a lesbian, though, so I personally enjoy seeing lovely women.

I love the extra irony of them feeling threatened in regards to their male partner when you're a lesbian. :P

But it makes me so sad that so many people seem to have relationships that are so untrusting/insecure. Not to mention what that says about their security with themselves.

That kind of insecurity is pretty fucked up, and sadly common.
