Insecurities vary from woman to woman, and usually depend on their man's particular interest. If they happen to have blond hair and know their man has a preference for red heads, a good looking red head might make the female feel threatened. If say he perfers women shorter than him and she's 2 inches taller, she might find the petite cutie working the counter, potential competition. Of those women unaware of their man's particular preferences and if there is no man involved at all, the woman whom they'd more likely be threatened by is the woman whom they envy/admire (if placed in a competitive sort of situation) *not* the woman whom they can feel buddy, buddy with.

Sure Veronica can kick arse, but overall she's too girl next door to incur any real insecurity on another women's behalf. She just seems like the type who would never do that (it's her presence and her face) while Margie seems like the type who most definately would just because 1. She could and/or 2. It serves her purposes.

Besides, not all women are insecure. I don't measure myself by other people. I measure myself by my own personal standards. If I meet them, I'm satisfied. It doesn't matter if Naomi Campbell walked into the same room with me, I'm not threatened.

Public Service Announcement: One's self esteem/security should not be tied up in other people (being as no matter what you do or say or look like, someone, somewhere will not approve), rather one's self. If you're with someone and feeling insecure just by another person's presence, chances are something is rotten in Denmark (the relationship) to begin with which makes the other partner (yes men can be just as theatened/insecure as women...occassionally even more) feel this way. If you are in a solid entanglement and you trust your partner not to stray (and are keeping him happy at home), other women/men should be a non-issue (assuming that your beloved is just not a total ho bag/arsehole to begin with).
