Man is jealous because of his amour propre; woman is jealous because of her lack of it.
Often women are pitted against each other for an easy joke, so they fight or steal each other's boyfriends. That's not really true to life.
Men lose more conquests by their own awkwardness than by any virtue in the woman.

Great affection is often the cause of violent animosity. The quarrels of men often arise from too great a familiarity.
Friendship can only exist between persons with similar interests and points of view. Man and woman by the conventions of society are born with different interests and different points of view.
A woman who gives any advantage to a man may expect a lover but will sooner or later find a tyrant.
Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.
Men are by nature merely indifferent to one another; but women are by nature enemies.
Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.
