Wikipedia definition of the word "Catfight"

Not exactly what we consider a catfight, but we will honor the opinion of whomever posted this.

From Wikipedia:

Wikipedia: catfight

Catfight is a term for an altercation between two women, typically involving scratching, slapping, hair-pulling, and shirt-shredding, as opposed to punching or wrestling.

It can also be used to describe two human females insulting each other verbally or being otherwise nasty to each other.

The many ways that women compare themselves to other women and compete with each other are also referred to as catfighting.

Catfights are different from other kinds of fights involving women because they usually involve competition between two or more women, usually over men.

Catfighting has recently been on the rise in several fields of entertainment. The appeal of a catfight was facetiously explained by Jerry Seinfeld, as "Men think if women are grabbing and clawing at each other there's a chance they might somehow, you know... kiss."[1] Catfights have been featured in cartoons, movies, and beer television commercials, frequently ending with the participants missing articles of clothing.

In the 1970s, interest in catfighting led to the popularity of the women in prison films and roller derby. The current boom in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) women's wrestling is, in part, an offshoot of the catfighting craze.
