As a straight woman, why do I feel intimidated by beautiful women?

Because you’re insecure. But it’s ok. Everyone has insecurities. The important thing is to recognize them and to not let them control you.

I feel that if you fit into a mold, the likelihood of a good job helps you get ahead. I see lots of qualified women in higher roles that fit that mold and makes you feel insecure. I get it. The honesty is the more confident you it doesn’t matter if you fit that mold, you can still get there or where you want to be.

Personally I know life is less tough for beautiful women in other ways.

it s normal to feel uncomfortable because of competition (because of other beautiful women while market for good men is so narrow)

but intimidated... it s a bit strong. i would look in childhood/talk to psychologist

Intimidated in what sense? In work situations or in general?

It could be that you are insecure, always compare yourself. Don’t do that. Just be you
