I’m talking about women...and our male corgi went away, we’re down to just Dagny. After two years of apparent bliss, Milo got viscous toward Dagny. They are both doing much better as single dogs. Milo went to a good home in Michigan.

I don't know why that would be a problem, as long as you are gone a lot, and don't re-arrange anything when you come home... ;)

“Women Are Bitchy”

Stop the presses! Clear the front page down to fold! Get ready for an Extra, eight column bold headline! Copy!

This is right up there with the earlier study which proved men do, indeed, look at women.

I’ve worked with women and I’ve worked with men, and I will take men any day of the week. Women are snakes.

And yes, if I’m honest, I will admit I can be bitchy myself.

Ah a bully researcher. Without bullies how do we test ourselves as to what the world has in store for us when grown?

Life’s a bitch. We all need to learn how to deal with it.

This has to be genetic. I just did a test.

My little girl is now 6 and my boy is 5. I told them “Let’s play a game, kids. Clammy, we work together, and Jackie is our boss. We have to try and convince him who is better.”

She went to town! “I color better than her! She didn’t even go to kindergarten when she was a baby.” (Not quite sure why she thinks that.)

But it got better! “You are a good boss. All the people like you.”

She instinctively knew to inflate his ego! It was awesome.

1. do we really need a study to confirm what we all knew already?

2. can men get some vindication here? the bitchiness doesn’t go away after mate selection, it gets redirected.

3. women actually hate it when men treat them the way they treat men. they like it even less when you mention that’s what you were doing.

Women are bitchy by nature. No, that’s not a sexist remark. That’s science. Or at least that’s what University of Ottawa psychologist Tracy Vaillancourt more or less concludes in her latest research on “intrasexual competition” among women.

Most boys research the same topic and pretty much reach the same conclusion sometime in kindergarten if not earlier through the valuable educational adjunct of a big sister at home. The actual term used is more likely to be something like "cooties" than "bitchy", but this is quibbling.

The University of Ottawa might want to look into awarding all those boys through the millenia an honorary doctorate in psychology. Professor Vaillancourt should also ask the boys currently in middle school for the findings from their advanced research on how a woman's attractiveness can make the "bitchy" thing kind of beside the point.

hahaha!

That IS awesome. You've got a go-getter on your hands.

Whatever you are doing, Mom, keep on doing it!

hey, everyone has their bitchy moments, guys and gals alike.

the difference is whether people consider it the exception for you, or the general rule.

That’s because even at an early age females know instinctively how to wrap men around their fingers to get what they want. Or try to. I learned that when I was a teen when my two teenage sisters wanted something from me, they were all real nice and sweet. If I was unable to satisfy their demands because I couldn’t or simply because I didn’t want to (usually involved money... I had some, they didn’t), their behavior changed immediately. Then I was no-good, dirty, rotten scoundrel.

It’s so fun to have a brain full of mush around.

I just said “Little girl, say you wanna go buy food, but you don’t have any money. What do you do?”

She didn’t even look up. “Get a job, duh.”

(I don’t care for the ‘duh’ part. She must have picked that up at school. But I’m letting that slide after such a fine answer.)

You’re right, it’s all about getting what you want. She can manipulate her father better than I can!

Yes, that’s very true. I try to make it the exception...save for once a month (cough).
