Some say that if women ruled the world there would be no wars; just a bunch of jealous countries not talking to each other. That sounds like a lot of bulloney. Sure, all people are capable of savage revenge if someone mistreated them, but women are the nicest, most supportive individuals when it comes to helping ladies who haven't yet crossed their way. Don't believe me? We have evidence!
It all started when Twitter user @ghostgrl shared a seemingly casual everyday situation. "I asked this girl where she got her nails done and she googled the exact address and showed me a pic of the building," she wrote. "THAT'S girls supporting girls." Relating to her story, other females started tweeting their own similar experiences with the #GirlsSupportingGirls hashtag. So send this post to your BFF and scroll down to read how exceptionally supportive women are to each other on a daily basis. Oh, and upvote your favorite entries!

if only every person that has ever been followed had a guardian angel like this.
I'm inclined to agree with you. Vigilance is needed, but not paranoia. Not every man going to the same place you are is a threat. This reminds me of a time I was running near the uni where I study. It was around dawn and just before passing these two women traveling in the same direction, I shouted "on your left" as to not startle them. My courtesy was futile and as I passed one turned and rammed her yoga mat into my crotch. When I asked why she did that she said "you had been following us for a few hundred feet and probably a rapist."

My elderly downstairs neighbor, Mrs. Mynatt, sat in her window every afternoon with her 22 long rifle assuring my safe arrival home from work. She did this for many months before I figured it out; before I even knew her name! She has been gone now for many years but I still thank her and think of her often. My staunch protector. Thanks again, Mrs. Mynatt, not only for watching but being willing to act on a stranger's behalf. Keep your sisters safe!
It's a good thing she got off with you. Something bad could've happened if she didnt
Umm how about listening to the lecture? Why pay all that money for an education if you are just going to watch tv shows instead of learning something?
The guys sat next to her, blocking her against the wall and them.

I have wanted to do this to a woman I didn't know, but wanted to tell her that she was on the verge of dating a douche (who had dated me before)... Coz when he knew he lost his chance with me, he started sending me screen shots of his convo with her, telling me how "madly in love" she was with him, and how "clingy she was but loves him so much" Yada yada... But he is and always will be a player... Somehow, I never ended up doing it, Coz in my country, that kinda solidarity would be mistaken as "why aren't you minding your own damn beezwax" ... :( . But I wish I could warn her... that the boy she was falling for is a no good git.
I need someone to do this for me...but first i need friends....Mrs.Lonely on Valentines day
Go into any mens bathroom upset & leave with your bladder or bowels empty, not a single word said and no new friends.
Sadly this is the truth. Maybe men could learn to be more sociable? Just a thought
Load More Replies...and when a man even has a thought that he might want to comfort you he is already faced with rape charges. Sorry not sorry, that's how it is.
So you think comforting someone =putting your hands all over them and raping them the same thing? Speaking kindly to someone is not rape. Sadly, there are many like you that are confused on the issue. Treat women like they are your own family, your mother, sister, aunt. Would you try to cop a feel when you talk to them? If you do well, you need some serious help.

I see a lot of people mentioning the word "cute" when it is about elderly women. If you are an old woman, do you really want to be called cute? Cute is for little girls, not elderly women. Though if you know them I guess you can say it to them, because then they are your friend. And some women call their friends cute. But to a stranger? Use something like wonderful. I would rather be called wonderful in stead of cute when I am old. Am I the only one thinking like this? Well.m, if so, let the downvotes begin!
I love that women are supporting one another. But, as a man; it bothers me so much that so many of these stories are about men harassing women. It's awful. Women disperse respect, simple as that!
When I was managing editor of a small newspaper (managing editor wrangles the reporters, handing out assignments and collecting stories for the editor to decide where they go - more than half of print reports are female, so it's an interesting job for a male ME), I learned to keep a stash in one of the out-boxes, several different brands and styles.
I walked through a parking lot and there was a teen girl crying in her car, I'm in my 30s at this point so did not want to seem creepy but had to ask if she was okay or needed to use my phone to call someone for help. Turns out she had started her time and had no hygiene products and wrecked the leather seat in her dad's car. Least I could do was go in and grab her some supplies.
Why? It would have been obvious he was following her since there was no reason to hide it. She wouldn't have looked concerned or aware of it because there was nothing to be concerned with. Perfectly normal guys minding their own business have been accused or suspected simply because of their obliviousness of women around them. If there could be as issue, you offer a heads up. It doesn't mean the guy is creepy. You just do a quick info exchange because better safe than sorry. Dudes aren't automatically the bad guy ffs.

What's a driving theory test? Is that like a written exam for a driving test?
If run across something awesome ridiculously cheap (comic book stuff, gamestop sale or some pop culture gamer s**t normally) I MUST HAVE THIS. The brain is all, "yeah but we don't have a use for that so maybe you shouldn't buy..." shut up brain you don't know s**t. It's a dollar it used to be like $40 and it's awesome. CLEARLY this is a mandatory purchase. So now I have this cool thing with like zero ideas or uses for it. Thus was born my "Santa Dragon stash". I collect butt cheap awesome stuff throughout the year and it always gets redistributed to loving properly fan crazed owners. Children's hospitals and toy drives. Everybody is all "oh you're so thoughtful" and I smile outside but inside I'm going "thank friggin Odin AND the FSM for you because what the hell was I going to do with 25 'Operation' Board Games 15 copies of chutes and ladders, and 19 Labyrinth and Princess Bride T-Shirts?" THANK YOU FOR USING THIS AWESOME S**T I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO PURPOSE FOR!! Win/Win.
Wipes I think. Remember they were both tired at that point.

Load More Replies...This is a nice gesture but people really should not borrow makeup from others, really. You can get infected with bacteria and HSV-1 (when it comes to lipsticks, balms etc.). I still remember about that woman who become paralyzed from the waist down after she borrowed her friend's brush because of a staph infection. Always clean your makeup brushes properly.
I don't think I'd like a random stranger in a club bathroom whipping out her lipstick and putting it on my mouth....eeewww.
I helped a promo girl put on her bra once. She was done with her work at this bar and we were both waiting in line for the loo and she was changing shirts and asked for help fastening her straps. She gave me a free shot of tequila for my effort.
What happened to being against sexualizing society and being against women being portrayed as objects? :p I think her boobs are fine without the lift.
We don't know who she's sending the pic to, it could be a flirty pic to her boyfriend!
Load More Replies...Why can't people just accept their body? Be happy with it. Especially this boob thing. And even more if she would send this to a guy she likes (I'm not saying she is, just as an example). He will find out the truth eventually if they end up together. Don't pretend to be someone you are not or have a body you do not have. Be happy with yourself. Everyone is perfect just the way they are! Kudos to the friendship goals. But this one I do not like. Just be yourself!
I think it's insanely ironic that the title of this list is "Supportive Women" and yet a bunch of people are jumping on here to judge and berate this girl for daring to push her breasts up a bit. You know, like BRAS do every single day. Yet if you go braless, people will judge you for that too, and claim you're being too sexual. Be happy with your body how it is naturally, folks - but only in a way that literally everyone else approves of. If you ACTUALLY be natural by not wearing bras or not shaving or whatever the accepted social norm is, suddenly everyone's clutching their pearls. And if a woman ever wants to enhance her appearance or express her sexuality in any way, shape, or form, she is instantly sounding the death knell of feminism.
It's funny because they're literally physically supporting her
Load More Replies...I agree that men are really creepy. But, I don't underrating. What does drop head on refer to? I don't have subways where I live.

I get having a best friend to help in life,but what is this. This is so weird even if you are trying to help a friend
I still don't understand? I though it might be due to English not being my first language. But I guess it's not. Please explain!

Load More Replies...The nicest a stranger woman has been to me is when I got a blood stain from my period on my pants and she approached me, offered me her blouse to cover it, went with me to look for a store that was open (it was after hours, so stores where closing and there was a lot of people around) and waited until I bought new pants and pads and got changed in the bathroom before leaving me after making sure I was fine. I was going to a class I needed to attend, she definitely saved me there.
We have to remember some of these are very young people here and not to be too harsh
True. I wish they could have focused more on women in professional situations where helping each other is what should be encouraged. At my work the boys go golfing without the girls. The girls just infight.
Load More Replies...As a woman, I have experienced vile, bullying behaviour from other women. I have also experienced some supportive, wonderful behaviour but it always angers me that people have to make it a gender issue - we are all human and display individual behaviour regardless of gender, colour, creed, sexual orientation and physical ability - STOP this ridiculous gender division.
Well I've seen women being FAR more savage than just not talking to each other. Especially in highschool. "but women are the nicest, most supportive individuals when it comes to helping ladies who haven't yet crossed their way." You basicly are saying they are in general nicer than men. Which is total BS. There are nice guys, There are nice girls. They are total male a******s. As well as females. Just in a different way but in no way more or less mean.
This article's title might be a little exaggerated, but we as a society need these contents to break the fake stereotype of females being competitive towards one another. Because, you know, all we ever want is males' attention, right? Contrarily boys are well known bros. Sadly, these kind of misconceptions are still believed (I witnessed that c**p from some male colleagues), but the good news is that, although still present, those are slowly but steadily fading away. And it's articles like these that play a role too. Anyway, female, male, non-binary... Whatever you are, long live solidarity! ♥
Load More Replies...This is how girls should be towards each other. It always hurts me to see when girls are demeaning instead of empowering. This post made me hopeful!
I was shopping with a friend. And waiting in the car park in the shade of a tree, it was about 37 C. Toooo hot. Three separate women came up to check if I was ok, and did I need a lift somewhere. Obviously I looked a bit heat struck.
Aaaand where my fellow butch girls at? Cuz you know 3/4's of this s**t doesn't mean a damn thing to me... 😂 Not a complaint I just know there are some younger butches that feel alienated by these types of "girl" posts. It's always the girly girl s**t that dominates these lists young ones because YOU don't pipe up. You're a girl, your peers aren't excluding you, they are awaiting your participation. Give them a chance to include you and you'll find the word girl less distressing to your personal existence. You're a girl and the other end of the spectrum will embrace you. Ovary up and give them opportunities to see YOUR definition of "girl" includes them too. Don't stay alienated any longer than need be, please...
