Let's forget the labels shall we?




The one thing many people fail to recognise is that women are also responsible for objectifying and labeling women. Carl Jung furthered Freud's Oedipus theory adding that the female child and mother compete 'for psychosexual possession of the father' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedipus_complex). This is known as the Electra Complex. This suggests that the female child desires to kill the mother so that she may have the father. Many theorists have likened this idea to female relationships, in that a woman may project damaging views onto others of the same gender in order to be seen favourably by a man.

So let's ditch the misogynistic slurrs that we label one another with. Supporting each other definitely gets people further in life.
