I’ve never personally known a woman who would do exactly that, either; though some of them do take perverse pleasure in getting under another’s skin.
But when it comes to dealing with men, women have developed, over time, some very interesting ways of compensating for their physical, social and political powerlessness. Don’t blame us - the slowness of males to evolve has had not a little to do with it.
A fascinating book- (the reviews of which seem to have been strangely overtaken on Amazon; so here’s the Barnes and Noble link):

C’mon, now. Men and women evolve at the same rate. They have different societal roles, however. I often somewhat facetiously sum it up this way...men are pigs, and women made them that way. There is, of course, a corollary.
