Shailene Woodley on women vs women

Shailene Woodley, star of Divergent and the upcoming The Fault in Our Stars (and Hollywood's newest It Girl), has a point.
Quote from a TIME article on Shailene.


I always told Vince, "We women are our own worst enemy," since we seem to be the first in line to pull down, put in her place, insult, shame a sister. I have been a victim of this for as long as I can remember. That's why most of my friends as I was growing up were boys. Of course, being surrounded by boys who really were just friends made the girls even nastier towards me. I have always tried to be supportive of other women. The only times I remember being nasty towards another woman is when Angelina Jolie got together with Brad Pitt, and when Kris Aquino was being annoying. But I have long since realized the error of my ways. Live and let live!

This Women's Month and forever after, let's please be kinder and more encouraging and more supportive of each other. We have to stop the hate. Peace, love and light to all!

  1. I was "one of the boys" too! I rarely enjoyed having a barkada of girl friends because there's too much drama. Too much backstabbing and not enough of supporting and inspiring each other. Or maybe I was just with a wrong bunch then. Or maybe it was our age at that time. Anyway, I turned out having lots of guy friends who are supportive and are not scared to talk to me about anything under the sun. Plus, I'm pretty sure they don't criticize as much as girls would. Lol!

  2. I love my guy friends more than the girls! I do have a handful of girlfriends that I call my womenfolk but I still prefer to be with my guy friends when I go out. I have enough drama in my life already!
