"I believe that as women, we have to stand for something …. I think that we teach men how to treat us," she said. "I had to stand honey -- take it for what it's worth."

NeNe said she wasn't sure of why her rival Kimabruptly departed the show, and doesn't know her footballer husband Kroy Biermann well enough to say whether he influenced her path out the door.

"The way Kim left the show is the way Kim left the show -- she did that willingly," NeNe said. "The mood definitely changed once Kim left the show, I feel like the girls get along so much better now that she's gone."

The former exotic dancer -- who said she feels like she "owns" the Housewives series -- says her favorite sister city cast is New Jersey.
