Women at their worst use character assassination, humiliation and manipulation to get what they want. A caricature of this would be Eva Greens character from Sin City or the stereotypical "evil popular cheerleader" that you see on tv but thats what they are: overblown caricatures. Some women do have "some of this" in them though and you should be very careful with those.
Its tempting to perceive indiference with hostility if you cant connect with them but thats a different thing (thats usually not done out of malice).
