You've probably heard that there is an opinion in society that female friendship does not exist? I always disagreed with him. Of course, based on the examples of female friendship observed nearby. However, as I get older, I notice more and more negative manifestations in female relationships. Criticism, gossip, slander, envy, jealousy, rivalry, teaching...Why all this? The first thing that came to my mind was the version about trying to catch up with men. Because in society there is a theme of the disadvantage of women by men. Allegedly, our world is masculine and unfair for women. This is about working conditions and wages, where you can often find discrimination against women based only on their gender. And there is also a template about stupid women added there. How logical and rational men are, and how hysterical women are, obsessed with shopping and chatting with friends. Now, in order to earn the love and approval of men, to be “your guy,” you need to be better than “all these abnormal hysterics.” But I didn’t stop there and moved on. The second thing I came to is psychoanalysis and the primary object - the mother. And what does this all mean? And the fact that the very first person with whom we establish a relationship is our mother. And what kind of relationship this is and what kind of mother this is in our perception leaves a very big imprint on further interaction with the female sex. And this is already true for both women and men. What we could not accept in a mother will not be accepted in other women. And if this “bad” mother’s trait was imprinted somewhere in us, but we repressed it (because it is very “bad” and “I definitely shouldn’t have it”), then in another woman we can safely hate her fiercely . So this prevents women from making friends. So this prevents men from loving and accepting women. What do you think about this? Do you think female friendship exists? #psy_kira_romanova #romanovakira #psychology #psychologist #psychologistmoscow #psychogramenskoye #psychologist's notes #relationship psychology #women's friendship #man and woman #mother relationship #psychoanalysis
