While scrolling through my twitter feed the other day I saw a video from the Jerry Springer show where a woman found out her boyfriend was cheating on her with another woman, a very typical storyline for this show. However, the reason it got put on Twitter is because when the woman he cheated with came out she didn't run and attack the woman on stage; instead, she hugged her.

Why was this so revolutionary?

Why is it that women are expected to fight over some trash guy on TV instead of standing together and realizing their worth?

Shouldn't women supporting other women be the norm?

The recent Women’s March that happened all over the world brought together women in a very powerful and beautiful way, but it shouldn't take a global event like that to bring women in solidarity with each other. I am guilty of many times not standing with other women. If I’m at a party and I see a girl who is slaying and all the boys are looking at her I immediately start to degrade her in my mind. I then think why would her beauty subtract from mine. Aren't we both looking good with our eyebrows on fleek tonight?

It is so easy to get wrapped up in the media’s idea of beauty. It gets so easy to judge other women on what they are wearing, or what their makeup looks like that we forget that they are our sisters. If you do, it’s okay. You are not Regina George. Everyone does it either consciously or unconsciously. It is more important now than ever before to stand with all women. So the next time you see that girl at the party and are filled with jealously, don't hate on her. Instead, strike up a conversation. She may end up becoming your best friend.
