Women always seem to travel in pairs or packs. We tend to go everywhere together. From the bathroom, to FLIK, and from clubs to the mall we are always pairing up in our daily routines. Some may wonder why do we always travel together. The answer is simple. We like to be with our friends. Women, by nature, are social creatures. We need others around us for moral support. Most women need a lot of reassurance about how they look and how they act. To reassure themselves they travel with their closest friends just so they can feed their egos.

Another reason why women travel in packs is when they are out and they need protection. When women go out to bars and clubs, and they do not want to be approached by strange men, they surround themselves by their friends. Their friends serve as a barrier for any man that tries to get too close. Most men feel intimidated by a pack of women. So they stay away.

Some women travel in packs in order to feel like they are accepted into their social circles. When they are huddled in their packs this is the time to compliment one another, gossip, and help with other social issues. This helps women's egos and lets them become more self-confident.

In short, women travel in packs so that they can feel accepted and loved and not threatened by others.
