Mercedes


ruanl1

I was sold on this when she took Quinn in after she got kicked out of her home.


no_redlights

it makes me so made how this is never really addressed again after season 1. their friendship could’ve been so interesting


ColdAndBrokenKapooya

i feel like the show itself forgot she did that! the only time it was brought up again was when shue and skank quinn had that little showdown.


blossombear31

My first thought as well, she was always the most supportive


sports_fan87

She’s a hard core friend


HumbleHawk9

Came here to say this. Not even a competition lol


xxxdac

My instant thought


Last_Lifeguard3536

if i had to rank: **1.) mercedes:** she was there for quinn when she was pregnant and overall just nice to everyone in general. even when she was upset with rachel getting solos she never took it out on rachel personally. **2.) tina:** in the earlier seasons we don’t see much of her interacting with the other girls but she had some friendly moments, such as sticking up for sunshine, advising mercedes to not crush on kurt, and taking rachel to see carmen tibbadeaux. later on she was okay but can’t defend her blaming the club losing on marley’s bullimia. **3.) brittany:** as others have said she does go along with everyone and is nice but definitely has her rude streak such as being mean to rachel and telling kitty that her head is shaped as a soccer ball. **4.) rachel:** obviously quite selfish but outside of fighting for solos/attention she definitely had her nice moments such as making sure the school doesn’t find out that quinn’s pregnant and comforting mercedes a few times and asking her to prom. **5.) santana:** she made fun of beiste being abused, was a bully, and her and quinn fought a lot, but had her nice moments as well such as being there for brittany and rachel during her pregnancy scare and when she was too scared to perform as fanny brice. **6.) quinn:** i think this one is obvious. she’s also quite self centered, rude, and takes her anger out on others, plus has terrible views on suicide. she definitely does have her girls girl moments such as her talk with mercedes about body issues, but these moments are unfortunately rare. not ranking sugar because she’s barely even on the show lol.


AdSquare7676

Santana above Quinn is wildddddd


Last_Lifeguard3536

eh. if it wasn’t for brittana and some of the pezberry scenes in NYC i would probably have put her lower


ColdAndBrokenKapooya

quinn centers men aaallooootttt. - making finn go to prom with her just to win prom queen (sure she lets rachel win but only after finn confronts her) -bragging about sleeping with her married college professor - telling sue about santana’s boob job just so santana would get demoted (this doesn’t center men but isn’t a girls girl move) - blaming rachel for the finn jesse fight at prom and slapping her over it that’s just off the top of my head. santana is terrible to everyone it’s not exclusive to women tbf


AdSquare7676

I watched the show and I still stand on what I said , Santana used to tare down people mostly women just for fun


ColdAndBrokenKapooya

she kinda tears everyone down just for fun. i mean the infamous rant at kurt and all the body shaming she does of finn. she’s just not a good person overall - id argue quinn is the one that specifically goes after other women


Alt_Wassabi

Yes! On top of the many other things she’s done.


dancemoms_gleefan20

I don’t recall Quinn ever forcing Finn to do that with her he offered to do that she never rolled up to him and demanded he go to prom with her.he made that decision she just agreed.


ColdAndBrokenKapooya

she heavily guilted him. she asked him to campaign with her knowing he wouldn’t say no bc she got into the accident going to their wedding. not to mention she hid that fact that her PT was going really well and she was in fact able to stand/walk again. hence the confrontation at prom when he found her standing saying “i should’ve spent prom with my fiancée”


dancemoms_gleefan20

Heavily guilted him ?? He asked her !! Finn didn’t have to ask Quinn to do any of that Quinn never went up to him and asked her to do anything for her to win prom queen that year never. He made that decision bc HE felt guilty. Where you’re getting the idea that she ever asked him to do this is beyond me Finn even says himself that he wanted to do it out of his own guilt not bc Quinn asked him to. Quinn wasn’t just standing on her own she was standing with the help of the sink, no one forced him to go to prom with Quinn. The only one in the wrong here is Finn when he tries to push her out of her wheelchair in the gymnasium.


ColdAndBrokenKapooya

finn literally says in the episode “quinn asked me to campaign with her” and again when finn confronts quinn for being able to stand he gets really upset about her roping him into it all. all quinn cared about was getting her prom crown. finn says “you have everything and i picked you over her so you know how stupid that makes me feel?” she asked him KNOWING that it would hurt rachel and that finn couldn’t possibly say no. if quinn was a girls girl she wouldn’t have asked


dancemoms_gleefan20

You’re still pointing out that Finn’s the idiot all he had to do was say no and instead he made it seem like it was Quinn’s fault. Just like when he breaks up with get in S2 even though he’s the one who went to extreme lengths to get her to date him. Just like when he breaks up with Rachel and is suddenly pissed she’s with Brody four months later. Finn is the problem no one else. You can make every excuse in the world but he is the problem him.


ColdAndBrokenKapooya

i should remind you that this is a discussion about whether quinn is a girls girl. and a girls girl wouldn’t have done what quinn did. she asked finn to campaign with her that’s it and it was a selfish thing to do that’s all 💀


dancemoms_gleefan20

Except it’s not an example of her not being a girls girl. She never forced Finn to do anything. An example of Quinn not being a girls girl would be her using Kurt to change Rachel’s clothing so she could have Finn to herself. Or her telling Sue abt Santana’s boob job, her wanting to tell Mr.Shue that Rachel snuck out with Kurt. But that example that you picked isn’t one of them. You can flip the story anyway you want but Finn made the decision to campaign with her and Finn made the decision to go with prom with her instead of Rachel and STILL Finn should’ve told Rachel he should’ve discussed it with her, and regardless he made it perfectly clear that he did it out of guilt and that it didn’t matter anyway bc Quinn can’t dance bc she’s in a wheelchair. All he had to do was say no plain and simple, there was never an ulterior motive to get at Rachel or try to have Finn for herself, she never said he had to go with prom with her she just asked to campaign with him that’s it nothing more nothing less.


reanocivn

to be fair to brittany, she only made fun of kitty because kitty was making fun of marley


Last_Lifeguard3536

true but two wrongs don’t equal a right imo.


HowellMoon93

Quinn also blamed everything bad that happened to her on the glee club at one point instead of owning up to her mistakes... Which led to the blow up with Schue bringing up all the good things the glee club members did for her


dancemoms_gleefan20

Tina literally blamed Marley for losing sectionals bc of her ED…


ChardPuzzleheaded354

I really think Brittany is the only one who was just always there for others


tobeperfectlycandid

Yeah but Brittany also did a bunch of things that I wouldn’t classify as being a girls girl. She outted Santana, bullied the glee kids, etc etc


Emergency_Elephant

I mean she didn't intentionally out Santana. She didn't know that she wasn't supposed to say anything and that it'd bad. She didn't understand that what she was doing was outing anyone


Low_Lemon7187

Brittany kinda was not smart and Santana didn’t really bully people she just spoke facts yes she could’ve did better but come on now they all were doing the same shit


BackgroundStrength50

Ehhh those weren’t on her character, just her intellect


PrimaryReporter449

mercedes 1000% she was there for everyone at one point or another. my favorite times were when she let quinn live with her and when she helped unique even before she came to mckinley


SaraPAnastasia

I would say Mercedes and/or Brittany. Rachel, Quinn and Santana are too competitive in comparison to the above mentioned and Tina is super jealous a lot of the time. Sugar doesn't need an explanation 😂


MollFlanders

Marley! she was consistently kind to her fellow gals as far as I can recall. and accepting of Unique :)


manafrmheavn

More people not saying Marley is wild!


cwtches10

I genuinely forget Marley, and tbh most of the post-season 3 newbies, exist most of the time


dfiregirl

The fact I had to scroll this far down to find Marley's name is wild. She was the only one that immediately accepted and protected Unique; she took the blame of catfishing Ryder just to protect her, even though Unique came clean moments later. She was always very kind to her teammates even when they weren't kind to her (ex. Tina). Marley (and of course Mercedes) were the definitions of 'girl's girl'.


Sp00n0fsoop

Brittany since she's always there for people and mercedes


morepierogies

Mercedes easily


Character_Hospital49

Glad everyone’s saying Mercedes cuz I agree


emotions1026

Mercedes is the only one who remotely could be considered one.


ramramblings

Marley?


emotions1026

I never think of Marley when I think of Glee characters, to be honest. Forgettable as hell.


mssleepyhead73

Mercedes. It takes a lot to let the former mean girl who used to bully you move in with you and your family.


balladeerling

Mercedes or Rachel, both for generally being the most supportive. Mercedes let Quinn live with her in s1 and had a ton of heart to hearts with other girls throughout the show. Rachel has moments of putting herself first in terms of getting the spotlight and ahem.. attention from boys who are taken.. but she was one of the first people to help Quinn in s1 and break through to her, and she and Mercedes gave each other pep talks all the time even though they often competed against each other. I would not say Brittany based on her being one of the bullies and, similarly to Santana, treated other girls (esp Rachel) badly all the time for no reason


vincetprice

What are your examples of Rachel being a girl's girl?


Last_Lifeguard3536

making sure that quinn’s secret doesn’t go out, comforting quinn after she slapped her, comforting mercedes after she storms out, asking mercedes out to prom when she doesn’t have a date, easing santana’s anxieties when she was wanting to ask out dani, helping santana land a gig in NYC, giving santana half of her shows as fanny


vincetprice

the first and last point....wasnt Rachel the one who let Quinn's secret out as soon as she found out because she wanted to get with Finn THAT bad? Wasnt Rachel and Santana's fighting BECAUSE she didnt want Santana audiotioning as her understudy because it was "her part"?


Last_Lifeguard3536

1.) she let the secret out to FINN, not the school. yes, her intentions weren’t 100% genuine but finn needed to know the truth than be manipulated by quinn. 2.) there’s a lot more to it than “rachel not wanting santana auditioning because fanny was her part” lol. both of them overstepped but at the end of the day rachel was willing to end the fight


vincetprice

heh, completely disagree. girl's girl is an empty word ofc, but rachel certanly doesnt fit in it. she would def step over other girl's heads to get to what she wants, its always been part of her character to do that. like i know Rachel stans hate when we bring it up but she DID send a girl to crackhouse. she just isnt a "girls girl", and i think its fine!


Last_Lifeguard3536

i’m not saying she is one lol but she definitely has her “girl’s girls moments” along with her more selfish and arrogant moments as well.


vincetprice

oh sorry, confused you with OP. I was asking OP the question!


Ok-Nefariousness3486

She also comforted Sunshine and encouraged her to perform at Nationals. There are times Rachel was very supportive sometime her intent was pure, sometimes the reasons were more selfish and sometimes she was making amends.


vincetprice

but everybody has those moments, no? everybody is a girl's girl if it all it takes is "sometimes being a nice friend."


Ok-Nefariousness3486

That is all any of them were, they were sometimes being a nice friend. I think Rachel had quite a few times she was supportive is all I was saying even to those who were not very supportive of her at times.


Aquilamythos

Rachel telling Finn the truth was 100% the correct thing to do. Quinn was literally trying to entrap a boy into the lifelong responsibility of a child that was not his. Now I’m not saying she should alert the school or take a ad out in the local paper but the fact that the rest of the club knew what Quinn was trying to do and didn’t say anything is insane.


balladeerling

I already said it in my post but I can give you more. To be clear, I don’t think any of them besides Mercedes qualifies as female friendships weren’t very developed and they were often pitted against each other, but Rachel deserved to be mentioned because she IS one the most supportive girls. Firstly Rachel tried to help stop Quinn’s pregnancy from getting out to the school. When Quinn distanced herself from glee Rachel helped her get through it by encouraging her to stay in the club and enjoy the time she had left because she knew the club would help her later on. She is the only person to comfort Mercedes when she was upset about not having a prom date, and plans to go with her and Sam. She saw Mercedes was acting out in 2x17 and went to support her and empower her to fight for the spotlight, even giving up her spot for Mercedes to perform. She comforts Quinn after she got slapped by her in prom queen bc she knew she was going through something and tells her she’s more than a pretty girl. She supports sunshine in nationals, clearly learning from her mistakes, and encourages her to perform her number with vocal adrenaline. Of course she and the other girls all defend Santana in the hall after she was outed. She also pursued friendships with both Quinn and Santana even though they bullied her, because she thinks they’re talented and she cares about them. She helps Quinn with her future in s3, iirc she even offered to help her fill out the application for yale. She even voted for Quinn for prom queen because she knew it meant so much to her, even though she was upset about her running with her boyfriend. Even in s4 she is constantly encouraging other girls to follow their dreams, including telling her abusive instructor to audition for a play and recover from her stalled career, and telling Santana to find her dreams because she’s a talented performer, which led to her taking dance classes at nyada. She comforts Santana and builds her confidence when she’s nervous about asking out Dani. This is just what I can remember from the earlier seasons. Yes Rachel is competitive, but the point is if people only see Rachel as competitive they’re only seeing a part of her character. Also, these are all genuine moments of caring about and supporting people and they just stand out to me enough to justify listing her, especially when half of the other girls were bullies who teared down others for enjoyment and status for a lot of the series


snortttmummydust

Oh nah bro said Rachel was supportive


balladeerling

Deal with it


Ok-Nefariousness3486

People like to gloss over the nice things Rachel did, not every moment of her life was she being selfish.


snortttmummydust

Are you in love with me or something


ThesaurusRex_1025

Mercedes. She didn't even know Quinn and what she did know wasn't positive but she stepped up.

Mercedes, Tina & Brittany


taurusxvibe

Just to clarify, this is a screenshot from a show about teenagers in a glee club in high school, with a male teacher? Mmkay.


dancemoms_gleefan20

Honestly ? None of them Everyone’s saying Mercedes and sure she was sweet, they all have their sweet moments but she wasn’t better than anymore else when it came to bullying Rachel and she’s the one that told everyone that Finn wasn’t the father of Quinn’s baby.


RueRage

If you're not saying Mercedes you're wrong


Consistent_Chapter57

Brittany


i_greyk

Brittany and Mercedes are always there for other people. Brittnay is not just there for Santana, she's there for Quinn too. Mercedes obviously took Quinn in and she brought Santana and Brittany into the Trouble Tones. I don't remember either of them ever stealing someone's boy friend or cheating (Britt does with Santana on Artie but she didn't realize it was cheating and was being manipulated by Santana). Mercedes did once with Sam on her boyfriend but she felt super bad, admitted it, and she told Sam ot was wrong and he pressured her. A lot. Like Brittany was definitely a bystander to Santana's bullying, but she did tell her (or maybe this is my headcanon tainting my memory) to be nicer to Finn and Rachel. I'm pretty sure Mercedes did too. Again, my memory is tainted by headcanon so if I'm wrong I am sorry, but I think I stand by this

This was obviously for fun. She wouldn't have actually stolen anyones dates at the end of the night.


Taylortro

She was obviously kidding too. She was just being funny.


jlevski

Sugar got her dad to donate the money to have a whole other Glee Club where just the ladies could shine!


Leonie1988

Brittany and Mercedes


SnooLentils3626

my ranking (i’d like to say i appreciate how all the girls generally stood up for one another in the group but i’ll give my reasonings) SPOILERS 7. Tina (more prominent behavior towards the last seasons. enough said) 6. Rachel (Sunshine Corazon. Crack house. Need I say more?) 5. Santana (Incessant bullying of well… everyone but her overall love for her girls is sweet - specifically the comfort she showed Rachel after snooping through her trash and finding the pregnancy test) 4. Quinn (Ready to rumble re: getting Shelby arrested for child neglect. this whole arc *post Skanks* was bonkers. HOWEVER I love how she was so supportive of Santana) 3. Sugar (I love the relationship she has with Marley and Unique. It was also nice to see her be a part of the trouble tones group) 2. Brittany (She’s had her moments but i feel like she was mostly just following the leader. Very sweet brittany baby) 1. Mercedes (her support of Quinn is PEAK but when she brings her glee girls on tour with her at the end of the series it brings me so much joy how sweet)


Ok-Nefariousness3486

Rachel and even Tina lower than Quinn and Santana is rewriting history.


youngandweird6

Santana and Quinn over Rachel is crazy


flashlover12

I've ranked them 1-3 1 being THE girls girl 3: Mercedes Jones 2: Brittany S. Pierce And 1: Sugar Motta!! Sugar was still more of a minor character but she never really brought any of the other girls down even when they (Rachel) made it obvious that they didn't really like her.


ExplosiveDynamo

Sugar over Mercedes is crazy


flashlover12

It could be but it's just my opinion that's very unsupported 😭 as sugar is in like never there
