Are you a girls girl why or why not?

    Depends on the situation. If she’s cheating? I’m not her girl. If she needs help? Absolutely.

    Depends. A situation where I am a girls girl is when my friend told me she was spontaneously spending x, y, z on a trip. Hell yeah like you go girl! We all need a vacation sometimes. A situation where I am not a girls girl is when a different friend told me she went no contact with her sister and her sister ended up getting pregnant and she wished her sister would stop focusing on her pregnancy and patch things back up with her. Like no…

    Depends on the situation. I’m sure I fit the definition sometimes and not others. I don’t bother identifying with such buzzword-type terms though, it’s just too reductive and simplistic.

    I wish I were more of a girl’s girl but I’m so selfish sometimes and I have a huge sense of justice which limits me in being more for the girls.

    All my close friends are women and I will support them unless they’re doing something stupid or reckless. I’m not going to cover for them cheating for example.

    Well, I want to be a girls girl. But apparently I’m not and I don’t know how to fix it. My best friends gfs regularly get mad at me for acting flirty with their boyfriends. I’m not trying to be flirty with them. They’re like brothers to me. We were friends for years. What I do is we sit on chairs and talk about a new game release or discuss new PC set up or work or something boring like that, and out of a sudden one of the girlfriends stands up and confronts me or just leaves the room and slams the door. Arguments are that there is something about my body language that looks flirty. I’m frustrated as fuck, I want to have good relationships with the girls but I’m crossing boundaries without realizing.

    I am. Period.

    Men have an unwritten code to protect other men. Women need to take some notes from them.

    I feel like a girls’ girl wouldn’t be dividing women into who is a girls’ girl and who isn’t.

    I don’t support women’s wrongs, but I will always support women’s rights!

    To a limit but for the most part I am. I love supporting and uplifting people. There’s enough for everyone to eat

    i am a girls girl if they are nice and kind

    I am, especially if I know she’s getting played. I have called out many men trying to cheat on their girlfriends/wives with me. I don’t like that shit at all and I will be so quick to find her, tell her, and show screenshots of everything. I would hope that a female would do the same for me. I’m always supportive of women as well when they’re doing things that deserve applause or making changes for the better. I don’t understand how women can be in competition with one another. We’re all fighting the same fight. We should be supportive and help one another instead of trying to put each other down. This should be the motto between all people regardless of gender, race, etc.

    I don’t support all women because some of us suck and need to be held accountable. But I will protect all women even if I don’t like them.

  14. apocalypsmeow Avatar

    Yes but my threshold for bullshit is very low. Like I’m not gonna girl out for a girl who hates girls or gleefully mistreats people if you know what I mean

  15. iusedtobefamous1892 Avatar

    No, because I don’t really like that term. Partly because I’ve seen that it’s often used to shame other women (“ew, you’re not a girls girl”), which seems like the antithesis of what the term is for. I also don’t love referring to myself as a girl, I prefer woman.

    I try to be a good person to other people. I support other women, I don’t see them as my competition, I’m certainly not after male validation. I just don’t like that label.

  16. ElectricFenceSitter Avatar

    I’m me.

    My relationships with other people are individual rather than lumped into gender.

  17. Smart_Measurement_70 Avatar

    I really really try to be. I feel like this is one of those things where you can’t say if you are or not, someone has to tell you you are

    I’m a girls girl until it puts my life in danger or the girl in question is in the wrong.

  19. wickedlavend3r Avatar

    I’ve seen men blindly defend other men based solely on the fact that they’re both men, and I don’t ever want to be like that.

    That said, I’m generally more comfortable around women than men because women are usually a lot friendlier. Most men I’ve met have been rude or weird to me. Also I kinda just don’t really know how to be a girls girl? :/

  20. PurpleGooeyPineapple Avatar

    i’m not a girls girl, tbh everybody looking reeeeealll suspect rn

  21. coconutaf Avatar

    Yeah, but not in the “I support womens rights! And wrongs” way. If you are my friend, I will hold you accountable and hold a mirror up to your delusion. I will call you out for being nasty. I will not let you embarrass yourself when I know you’ll regret it later. I want you to exercise self love in the way that you act in your own best interest.
    Im also a girls girl in if I saw my WORST enemy, the most evil woman I’ve ever encountered in danger/too drunk/being harassed: I will make sure I stand with her and get her to safety even though she made my life hell for a while.

  22. aidalkm Avatar

    Yes bc i think most of us have been through similar things and it’s never worth it to fight/hate another woman over a man.

  23. Extension_Designer70 Avatar

    Yes, unconventionally I fear, UNLESS she isn’t a girls girl.

  24. xoxo_Cupcake Avatar

    Not at all and I used to feel guilty about it. I grew up with three brothers and just naturally gravitate toward boyish things. Now at 28 I realize these labels are pretty limiting. I’m just me and that’s enough.

  25. flyingscrotus Avatar

    I wasn’t really raised to be one, but I try a lot

  26. imkarnotaurus Avatar

    Most of the times yes but depends

  27. kessula Avatar

    It depends, if in the situation the girl it’s in the wrong, then I’m not.

  28. Grand_Gate_8836 Avatar

    I am. By all means. I’ll stand by my girl friend even if she’s wrong. Not because I support her wrong-doing but because I’d want to correct her mistakes & make sure she realises her faults & does better. It’s always a safe space for me when I’m with my girl friends & I make sure it’s the same for them, too! I love being a girl’s girl ❤️

  29. Lynx45467757 Avatar

    Depends if they deserve it. Same people don’t deserve any support or help regardless of gender. People get help based on their personality not their gender. Supporting or protecting anyone just because of their gender in completely sexist and discriminatory

  30. Civil-Feed8588 Avatar

    Depends. When they are doing wrong, I am not. When they are doing right, they yes.

  31. needymuesli Avatar

    depends on the situation really

  32. schecter_ Avatar

    No, I am a person’s person as long as that person deserves my support. I don’t condone bad behavior just because it’s done by a woman.

  33. This_Temporary6542 Avatar

    No.
    I’m “if we vibe, we vibe” type of girl.

  34. Striking-Fill-7163 Avatar

    Yeah, a little bit too much that people suspect I’m a lesbian😂 i think i just prefer women, they are more interesting, like-minded, and safe. There are girls I don’t like but only because they hate me. If they want me, then i want them too 😂 i can never hate women, like i don’t even hate my woman bully back in highschool, i hate myself for being hated by her, you get it? 😭

  35. h8mecuz Avatar

    Yup! Now, i don’t condone piece of shit behaviour so if she’s going to do that, i won’t support her but i will always protect a woman

  36. trUth_b0mbs Avatar

    unless she’s a piece of shit, 100% I am.

  37. Waerfeles Avatar

    Sure. My girls are good. But I’d also throw down for guys and non-binary pals. Standard loyalty, I’d hope.

  38. jazmine_likea_flower Avatar

    I feel like I intentionally don’t put labels on myself ( like feminist, girls girl) bc I feel like those terms have been manipulated and weaponized for the convenience of certain women only and manipulated by women declaring they are X but I will say i find my moral standards and personal codes probably are more reliable than some peoples who will say I’m X or why so I feel good about myself at the end of the day.

  39. LovelyDollxx0 Avatar

    Not at all, and I used to be ashamed of it. Growing up with three brothers shaped my interests differently. I’d rather watch UFC fights than get a mani pedi. Took me years to realize that’s perfectly fine and doesn’t make me any less of a woman.

  40. whatwhat612 Avatar

    Yes, I am but like a big sister girls girl. I’m going to hold you accountable, push you to reach your potential, tell you hard truths, but be there for you no matter what.

  41. canthaveme Avatar

    Yes because I am the person I needed other women to be when I was younger. Or I try to be anyway

  42. QHS_1111 Avatar

    Im the biggest girls girl. Why? Because men for the most part are immature, not in tune with their emotions, their conversations on average lack depth, and many lack empathy and compassion. I find females the opposite. The conversations and bonds I form with women are top tier, almost therapeutic. I honestly wish everyday that our world leaders were all women. I guarantee the world would look completely different.

    Ps – not all men suck, there are great men out there, it’s just not the majority.

  43. 927891 Avatar

    Yes! I love supporting other girls and being there when they need me. But if you’re in the wrong, I’m not gonna back you up blindly.

  44. freekin-bats11 Avatar

    I dont like the term. I try to refer to other women as women as much as possible, first of all. And second, Im not every womans friend nor supporter, particularly if they are mea spiritied, hateful, bigoted, etc. However I will always support womens fundamental rights.

    Every woman, not matter how nasty, misguided, or generally unlikable is a human being, and all humans are endowed human rights in a just society. I despise pickmes and bigots like Candance Owens but Ill always advocage for her right to abortion (bodily autonomy) and affordable medical care because human rights arent about social membership.

    I also think no woman deserves misogyny, no matter how shitty they are. Ill never make exceptions for a woman to experience sexual violence or violence by men just because she may be bigoted or maybe a war criminal lol. Being ok with a little bit of misogyny is to be okay with misogyny. Thats not how I fly

  45. drunkenknitter Avatar

    I think I’m more of a person’s person because not everyone in a specific gender deserves my support.

  46. Many-Resident-4168 Avatar

    100% a girl’s girl, i love hyping up other women, whether it’s complimenting a stranger’s outfit or standing up for my friends,there’s enough negativity out there lifting each other up just feels good

  47. HonorRose Avatar

    I’m not, but sometimes I wish I was. The “girl’s girls” I’ve met are so amazingly positive, uplifting and loving. I feel the magnetic draw of them, but I never feel like I really fit into the group when it’s a bunch of them.

    I attract a lot of male friendship, and I adore my male friends. But, I don’t like being in an all-male group either. Too much testosterone.

    The best vibes for me is a mixed group, which is how my core friend group is composed. That’s how I like it best 🙂

  48. bussysoup Avatar

    Yes.

    I find it strange people are specifying here… “I’m not gonna support if they are doing something wrong or reckless”… obviously, thats not what a girls girl is. And whoever thinks that is wrong.

    Girl’s girl are women who protect other women, and dont throw other women under the bus to make them more attractive or appealing to men. Meaning, if you’re flirting with a guy, you’re not gonna allow a girl to be harassed by his friend to make it easier for you to go home with him. Being a Girl’s girl doesn’t mean you allow women to get away with shitty things. It means, no matter what you’re not gonna let a man (or anybody) take advantage her, especially not for your own gain. It can also mean giving another woman a pad when she needs it, when she asks to “check her” you make sure shes not bleeding through her pants…. Protect all women. You dont have to be nice to all women or agree with them, but we need to protect them.

    Nope. I’m a me girl by being a good person. I’ve spent too many years putting everyone ahead of me.
