• 1. The Weave Grab

  Perhaps the most definitive element of any cat fight....ladies know to go for the gold (in this case, goldilocks)

• 2. Close-Face Speech

  A precursor to many girl fights is the close-face speech. Insults never sting as much as they do when issued two inches from your nose.

• 3. The Stance Dance

  All girl fights start with an extended stance dance -- usually swaying back and forth puffing out one's chest. Sometimes the entire fight IS the stance dance!

• 4. Sassy Finger Wag

  Ooooooh no she didn't!

• 5. Screeching

  The true measure of intensity in a girl fight isn't the strength of the punch, it's the decibal level of the screech.
