Thank you. My husband, and a few on this board, seem to realize this. Then there are the others, the most vocal, imo, who still don’t get it.
Why does it always come down to, with far too many women, how other women look/dress?
We have a parent at our school, her kid is in K, she is absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful. The woman is hot. Her daughter, in K, is just fine. no problems academically or behaviorally, But people hate her, trash her, because she’s so hot. The K teacher and I were talking yesterday, and this parent is always willing to do stuff for the class. But she’s hated because she’s hot. All the frumpy women and dickless men trash her for how she dresses, looks. It’s insane.
Women can be extremely catty when it comes to other women, especially good looking ones. Early on in my wife’s professional career, someone complained that my wife’s skirts were too short and that it was distracting. She got HR involved, and they had several meetings, and a couple of them even involved measuring tapes. Turned out that her skirts were actually covering more than the complainers. The difference was nothing more than the 5’ nothing pudgy PA couldn’t look as leggy as my 6’ wife in any clothes.
It just went downhill from there. The complainer quit less than a year later, turning in her resignation the day my wife became her boss.
