Trope escapes into real world and causes negative impact.

Participants judged the likelihood of two managers repairing a frayed relationship roughly 15 per cent lower when both managers were female, versus male-male and male-female. Participants rated those involved in all-female conflicts as also being more likely to let the argument negatively influence job satisfaction than male-female or male-male quarrellers.
So list under real life section?

The trope definition appears to contradict itself.
A battle between two or more female combatants that differs from the Designated Girl Fight only in that it's invoked for Perverse Sexual Lust purposes more than anything else.
but
a true Catfight ... is not intended to titillate (though may well do so anyway).
So is it intended to titillate or isn't it?
