why do women get the called the worse names?

Don't kid yourself, men get called names too. Sadly there is a double standard for women, who men look upon as wives and mothers, and are supposed to be saintly almost.\nBut just because a woman gets a name, doesn't mean that is what she is. Sometimes it is someone else being jealous, or having a grudge against her. So never judge a book by it's cover.

Unfortunately not uncommon.  Those people can be charitably described as "jerks" and "freeloaders."  There are other names I've used, not for public consumption.

Well, I'm not a guy, but I do think it gives men a bad name. Because it makes some guys think they can basically do what they want to do and get away with it because they're men. Same goes for some women, though.

Calling someone names who offends you is just a way of admitting that you are less intelligent then that person.  This seems to be the common attack lately of the intellectually lazy and morally corrupt.  No matter how crackpot their idea, they claim that because it came from them they have some sort of divine right to be correct all the time.  Just ignore them, they will go away when they see something shiny or decide to be offended by the next thing that talk radio tells them to be offended by.

Women hate on each other alot because we want everything and we're real insecure on somethings. Recent studies have shown that women are now more aggerssive than men. Women have become the new predators or alpha males. Women compete with each other  to have the best clothes, jobs, and men.

Most females don't like one night stands because they have the fear of being labeled. Society has made it that way because it's okay for men to do it without being called names but not a women..If she did she would be a ho and everything else.

They are projecting - pure and simple.  They have probably suffered rejection or worse from women that makes them all  enemies in their minds, especially the attractive ones.  A good way to judge a person's character is by how they treat strangers.  If they are rude or mean to strangers they generally are people with low self esteem.

Men have been the top banana for so long that their power feels threatened.  The stereotypes of ugly or lesbian woman is just another attempt by men to keep their control and power over woman.  Here you are an intelligent, thoughtful woman and yet you say "bit of a feminist"  you are nervous to be labeled a feminist because of the connotations it brings to other peoples minds... Looks like men did a good job there, huh??  Here's a hint, when the best defense against something you've thought out and researched and believe is, "you're ugly"  "you're stupid" .... you are on to something valid.

you see.. Women HAVE to play hard to get whether we want to or not, because we get labeled as sluts, hoes, whores, etc. Men have the ability to be easy and sleep around and not get labeled. If men do get labeled its always meant in a good for you sense, unlike for women it means we're slutty and need to learn to keep our legs closed...\nIt's just the way human nature has stuck itself into peoples lives.. the old days do live on.....\n\nSo now do you understand why women have to play hard to get whether we really want to jump you right then and there?

The people who do that are going to find something to condescend about...in your case it just happens to be your name. BTW..i think it is a fine name.

I hear that! I am currently working in a call centre also for a few weeks and am fed up with the amount of abuse that I have to take. I am a New Zealander and as such am called some pretty nasty racist names. I have heard some awful things shouted down the phone at me and there really is no need for it. Do people seriously think that you will want to help them if they abuse you?\nI thought face to face was bad but i think people have a mind set that if they can't see you it doesn't count.

Because they think you can do better, and they're just fustrated with you.  Well with my experiences it's usually fustrating because they come and complain about their men/women, but then always go back to them at the end of the day.

although i am a woman,i will say tha we have some strage behaviour.a woman calls herself a girl to feel young or to try to make people see them as girls(though it doesnt allways work,naturaly)and girls call themselves women to feel mature,or to apeal to guys.

i worked in retail for several years.  after talking with a ton of people, women are BY FAR the worst people because of their quick-judgement snap-attitudes.

I don't know if you're a man or woman, but if you're a women it's probably because she's jealous and/or just plain stupid. Most women who make fun of other women are jealous, and others just enjoy hurting people's feelings and starting drama. Just ignore her or give her a witty statement right back.
