Looking at female narcissists
Explore the intricate world of female narcissism. This page delves into the characteristics and potential influences behind this complex personality trait, offering a deeper understanding beyond common perceptions.

The intricate nature of female narcissism
Narcissism, in its essence, is a personality trait characterised by a self inflated sense of self-importance, a deep need for excessive attention and admiration, troubled relationships, and a lack of empathy for others. Today sees females with painted on faces, eyebrows shaved off, just to be drawn back on again, fingernails & toenails painted, hair died and also styled similarly to one another, plus of course their attire when they're going out to impress, compared to their attire at home. Is this not the traits of a Narcissist?
While often stereotyped as a male trait, female narcissism is equally prevalent and I do genuinely blame parents for it's apparent increase frankly.
In today's world we always see far too much focus on a new born daughter becoming 'Daddy's little girl' or new born boys, becoming 'mummy's little soldier'
We even have to endure "baby showers" and/or naming parties for newborns, but the reality is: who benefits from any of these Americanisms?
The fact is that any new born is a new life that requires nurturing from both Mother & Father, is called nature, as I see it.
Females are very different in their biological make up to males, which I touch on below, and I have also written other pages here on this site, so I believe that Daddy's little girl, grows up seeing that everything is done for her by daddy and simply matures into an adult female who has had, unwhittingly, the 'grandiosity seed' planted, because she has had everything done for her, she has been told how pretty she is, while many mother's resent the attention that their own child demands. This little girl then grows up believing that males are there to protect and serve her.
In my daytime career, which spans over half a century, I watched the vast changes from decades ago; always dealing with the 'man of the house', to repeatedly, in recent decades, always dealing with the 'lady of the house'. And ladies like to impress with the royal 'we' with no evidence showing of her input, but of bcourse, that behaviour is another very common Narcissistic trait.
Now, think about famous chefs globally, think about famous hair dressers globally, think about famous dress designers globally, think about famous shoe designers globally.
Now ask yourself why males have taken those slots 🤔
Another point to look for is simple: women only ever cry tears after they've been caught out doing wrong, and that is a very typically Narcissistic stunt to play in order to regain control.
Now of course this page will create the usual attacks about being misogynistic, and/or sexist etc, But those attacks are again, (and I've had many attacks for saying/writing whats not popular over the years), but again, these attacks are very typically Narcissistic.
Recapping on earlier:
Makeup, hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, fimgernails, toenails etc etc - surely that's all just done to impress others with Grandiosity?
I noticed that females, en masse, were first to start accusing men of bring Narcissistic, but shadow projection is a very real trait of all Narcissistics, so please do understand that this is based on my personal experiences.
Just take it as 'food for thought', dont go crying, just think 👍

Hormonal influences
One of the key aspects to consider when examining female narcissism is the potential role of biological factors, particularly hormones.
Oestrogen and testosterone, often associated with sex and aggression respectively, play significant roles in brain development and behaviour.
While a direct causal link between these hormones and narcissism is still under extensive research, some early theories suggest that imbalances or heightened levels could influence personality traits associated with self-perception, dominance, and emotional regulation.
Learning more about these hormonal interactions can provide a more comprehensive view.

Characteristics and impact
Female narcissists do exhibit traits such as excessive focus on their appearance, manipulative behaviours, a strong sense of entitlement, and a tendency to exploit others for personal gain.
These characteristics can significantly impact personal and professional relationships, often leading to cycles of conflict and emotional distress for those involved, divorce certainly appears to be popular these days.
Understanding these patterns is crucial for fostering healthier interactions and personal well-being. One final thought: for dennturies females have carrid out Hypergomy, marrying wealthy men, not ease and security, the little girls dream of marying a Prince, where she will become the Consort to the next King, still remains a dream to little girls today (Prince Carles and Princess Diana, is a recent example), so how deep does this really go?
Ultimately, understanding more about oestrogen and testosterone is the most important thing to take away from this page, also read My pages about NEUROTICISM.
