The most notable toxically feminine phenomena are male validated women -- also known as “Pick-Mes”. A pick-me is a woman whom desires the validation of men to the point of promoting and agreeing with sexist standards, all to be praised by sexist men and hopefully be chosen by a “worthy” sexist men. Pick me women rely on respectability politics, slut shaming, and constant comparisons of themselves to “lesser” women. These women are toxic because they also dabble in promotion of rape culture, victim blaming, and promote the idea that submission patriarchy is better for women than having control of their own life. They promote the ideas that women are meant to be nothing more than breeders, maids, and cooks to men and that a woman’s own personal goals and ambitions are secondary to those of men.
These women are also usually complicit in the protection of abusers in their communities from due justice and turn a blind eye to abuses committed by men around them- sometimes even towards their own children in favor of those abusive men. There have been many stories of women who allowed their children to be sexually abused by a boyfriend, or of women who set another woman up to be sexually assaulted by men. Women who witness violent or sexual crimes against their communities by these men and refuse to cooperate with justice to protect these men are examples of pick-mes.
Another form of toxic femininity is the act of gossiping; passive aggressive via the spreading of rumors and intended personal information in order to maliciously defame another woman. While celebrity gossip is a very popular American past time, the average celebrity profits off of having his or her name being a part of the public consciousness, but when it comes to woman to woman personal relationships- the sharing of business that was meant to be private can have serious social consequences in a society that is sexist, as well as being hurtful to someone who has trusted you with this information. Many women are aware of this and have at some point weaponized the private business and sexual pursuits of a woman against her in the hopes of damaging her reputation.

We have all seen certain women here on JPP doing exactly the above, in order to slam Dr. Ford and support Kavanaugh -- even though there is no one here who knows anything about either of these two people or their lives and the alleged incident. Ladies, if you see yourself in this excerpt, ask yourself if that is you. I'm doing the same. Guys, ask yourselves if you want the support of women like this, or would you prefer someone w/o an agenda.
