Who’s the Most Judgmental Amongst Males & Females?

Written by: ^Northernstar*

judg·men·tal (jj-mntl)
adj.
1. Of, relating to, or dependent on judgment: a judgmental error.
2. Inclined to make judgments, especially moral or personal ones: a marriage counselor who tries not to be judgmental.

In a world where many people like to criticize others for the things they say or do, I find it common that most of us (teens, adults, elderly) have been guilty of judging someone (at least one time, including myself). Is it good to judge anyone? Well, no. Nine times out of ten, the individuals being judged are battling uncontrollable situations that have overtaken their lives.

Scenario I:
Tonya & Ashley are walking to the bus stop and they stand next to a beautiful, dark skinned woman with no eyebrows & a short haircut. Tonya whispers to Ashley, while they both laugh at the woman’s close cut, not realizing the woman has been battling breast cancer for two years and has been receiving radiation/ chemotherapy treatments.

The statements many people make about others are ridiculous, especially when they don’t personally know the individuals or judge them by their appearance. In general, people can be very judgmental… but, the question is… who is worst amongst males & females?! I asked the same question to many of my followers on Twitter & Facebook, and a few people from the streets. A great number seemed to think women are the most judgmental! Below are REAL responses from people ages 16-22 I received about women:

“I think women are judgmental because they seem to carry their bad past eXperiences in their newfound relationships/friendships.”

“Women are by far the most judgmental... probably because they are often insecure… That’s how it usually goes… If a woman sees another woman as a threat or isn’t feeling good about herself, it makes her feel better if there’s negative attention shifted towards someone else, reflecting it away from her...”

“I’d say females! Hard to say why. I just think of females gossiping about one another and about other guys. Of course, guys can do that, too, but I find females will do it more openly… They eXpress themselves more to each other.”
