I heard on the news recently that physical fights between females appear to be increasing, and it was observed that when fights happen, girls (or women, I suppose) are almost invariably more vicious. Apparently when guys fight there's a goal in mind, and once the goal is achieved, the fight's over.

But when girls fight the goal is to cause pain and suffering and inflict injury. IOW, that which is a means to an end for guys, is the end for girls.

Sad to say, I believe it. Females can be really nasty to each other.
You can certainly see that in the example of Leah and Rachel in the OT. They fought tooth and nail and mandrake all the way down the pike.
