The good thing about having a brother, you can get opinions and views of the male population without ever embarrassing yourself.
I used to think of us, women, as a highly being, the fairer sex, and that we're much more humble than our egoistic counterparts.
A woman can look at another woman and comment that the other is beautiful. Or her dress is lovely, has a nice figure, her make-up flawless. Or, her hair is lustrous. Yes, we can admit all these. Albeit, with envy.
Men, on the other hand, can never admit another man is better-looking than he is. Or dresses better or has a nicer style. Even if his heart admits it, he will never say it out loud in front of his male friends. Either that or they'll tell you, "I'm not gay; I don't LOOK at other guys."
I realize though a couple of weeks ago that although women are more verbal and honest, there comes the bitchiness.
A man see another man better dressed and all walked past them, they looked at each other briefly, avoiding eye contact, and walk away.
A woman sees another woman walk past, they size each other up, looking from head to toe, and they see if the other is friendly, if the other is giving off this "arrogant" vibe, they put on an arrogant act too.
WHY? A few weeks ago, Nad and I went to roam around Orchard after watching White Noise(don't watch. It sucked!) We were walking in Far East Plaza and we kept seeing this bunch of girls(sec school, like 14 or 15 yr old) like 3 times in different stores. One time as they walked past us, one of them said "Ah, ngumpat lah tu. Ngumpat ah!" (meaning "Ah, gossiping is it? Go on gossiping!")
Excuse me! Asal korang perasaan yang kiter berbual pasal korang. Topic tu didn't come up in our conversation seh. Merepek!
Nad and I didn't talk about them. Or gossip. Nad mentioned that they performed in the Anti-Drug Abuse show and I asked if they were any good. They weren't. Then we were talking about other things. The weirdest thing is we kept getting like these "looks" from all these minahs–minahs when we went Taka and Wisma. I honestly don't know what's wrong that night.
Look at us! It's not like we look arrogant. We were trying to think of the reasons we kept getting those looks all night. Did we look confident, beautiful and just oozes charisma that people are jealous of us? Nah! Jangan nak perasaan sha!
Ladies, don't turn your envy to jealousy.
