Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed that comparing her to Jessica Alba, Blake Lively and Reese Witherspoon is purely misogynistic.

The 'Iron Man' actress said to a publication that media unknowingly compare entrepreneurial women, but this is not fair as fundamentals of every business is different like her close pal Alba owns a consumer good company whereas she has a clothing business, E! Online has reported.

The 42-year-old American actress added that people try to tie her and her fellow actresses' entrepreneur just to make a good story, but she feels slightly offended by this generalization as this is done with women and not with actors.

Paltrow even shared that she is a good friend of Jessica Alba and Reese Witherspoon and would love to everything possible to support support their businesses if required.
