Tags: why do women love to gossip?
what do you think about these statments I found on the net:
1.Women have at one time or other destroy others marriages and friendship as a result of gossip.
2.Women gossip because they were not created but made. The rib God took from papa Adam was the rib of gossip.
Did you get something now? The Rib of gossip was used in making women hence they gossip.
3.When 2 or three women gathers together gossip start automatcally.
(I want to hear what woman/man got to say on this. I am just trying to create a nice discussion on this. Don't take it personal and no personal attack)

let me think I'll tell you later -
That's part of their nature.. -
To answer your incredibly sexist opinion without any sort of logic that included religion for reasons known only to you: Men gossip and talk around the locker room too, same as the female sewing circles. Haven't you ever seen Pulp Fiction? It's called reality, dude. That's just the way things are with some people.
If you're so annoyed with the fact that women talk, you have that choice of not including them in your personal life.
I'm not personally attacking you, but you should consider your argument topic a little different if you want legitimate feedback on such issues. -
Will women admit that women gossips more than the men?
-
duh!!
-
I don't consider myself a gossip, nor are my female friends. There are plenty of other things to discuss, rather than dwell on talking about other folks. I think it really depends on the person. Male or female. -
The two biggest busybodies I know, who gossip like magpies, are both men. People gossip, some more and some less. The men just get to call it bullsh-tting. -
what does "man got to say?"
Man say you gossip
about women
and their propensity to gossip.
Man scratches head. Man whacks self over head with club.-
LMAO...

I only gossip when I'm feeling bitter and cruel.
Mainly because I want to be bitter and cruel. Otherwise, I don't wanna hear it.
People gossip to make themselves feel better, by talking about the personal and private matters of other people. Both men and women do it, for various reasons, and to various extents.
And the rib in the story of Adam and Eve was not the "rib of gossip"

I don't like to gossip, but did you hear about Kdawg? His wife leaves him alone without food! I Wouldn't say anything but it is shocking. -
Isn't that horrible? Hopefully she makes me some sghetti when she gets home.
-
Oh! kdawg! Anok was just saying how your wife don't feed you and I was saying she shouldn't say that, women are terrible gossips.
-
what a horrid wifey poo but I heard it's coz he gorges himself and then barfs in the bog. -
Oh, I had heard it was payback for him withholding foot rubs.
Tsk tsk!

thats a bad topic!!!!-
Don't just say that and leave. You can say anything and why you don like it.

Don't believe everything you read. I'm not a gossip & I don't play games. I'm getting tired of being lumped in with bad apples all the time like this, though! REALLY tired.

Men gossip, too, studies say

It will be better if we make comments refering to the points 1.2.3.

Very well
1. not provable
2. what a load of kaka
3. Nope, most of the women I get together with it is either a discussion about art, or it is literature and art, or art, art and more art, or literature and art, or art, literature, and who's paying for the next drinks.

Because they have smaller brains than men. -
I've always hated gossip it tedious to listen to and the people who are always full of is are usually the most boring people I have ever met. -
It depends on what you consider gossip...some people consider gossip filling each other in on the latest happenings...others think of it as trash talking....
I do the first, not the second....I have friends who do the second...in my opinion, they do so because it makes them feel better about themselves....I actually had a friend get angry with me because I wouldn't tell her something a mutual friend told me in confidence....
1. possibly at some point this has happened.
2. If there is a rib of gossip and it was TAKEN from man, then why do many men gossip as much as women? And if your ribs break, and one happens to be the gossip rib, does it break you from the habit?
3. in some cases, yes....and again, it depends on what you consider gossip.... -
Can I sum up that woman don't gossip?
-
No fish are dogs, and no dogs can fly, therefore all fish can fly.

I don't think ALL women do anything. I think you're just jumping to conclusions about all women based on the few women you know. I've not known a lot of gossipers in my life but that's because I avoid them, and they are both men & women. Gossip is pretty equal opportunity that way.
Perhaps it's an age thing. Younger people have a tendency to gossip more I think, but I truly don't think it's gender based. I mean if you're going to go with stereotypes I guess you could say boys talking about having sex with girls, you know in the so-called locker room, well that's gossip and can ruin a girls reputation ... but, like I said, that's a very stereotypical response. Again, I think it has more to do with maturity then gender. -
Why do (some) men like to make ridiculous generalizations about women, such as "they all like to gossip?"-
This is not ridiculous generalizations about women,
May be most think that way

I don't love to gossip. However, I admit that I can get caught up in it if I am around it a lot. I think a lot of women are the same way.-
An honest possibilities!
-
You only think it's honest because she is agreeing with you, LOL. OMG...priceless. Soooo.....everyone else here who doesn't agree with you is being dishonest?
lordy -
No, Its not that way, I just said about the possibilties of her comments. There is no intersection between any others

Gossip can hurt people in so many ways. It ruins friendships, marriages, careers, and the list goes on. It also hurts the person who is doing it. Most of the time when people are gossiping, they are feeling bad about themselves and gossiping only makes it worse. I do my very, very best to simply keep my mouth shut and I think that's what most women do.
-
Maybe most of the women like to gossip but I don't think all the women are the same..some just hate to gossip..some would go 50:50..-
Point Noted

When two or three women get together they talk, which is not always gossip, it is however communication. I know that this is hard for men to understand because when two or three men get together, they make a few noises here and there, and are happy to consider it male bonding!
Next time you catch a few women talking, they may only be asking each other why most men don't talk!! -
Your question is a lot like asking someone "have you stopped beating your wife?" It is based on the false premise that all women love to gossip, a tired old stereotype. Women are also presumed to be worse drivers than men, you know, but if you ask any insurance adjuster they'll tell you that women get preferential rates because they are BETTER drivers than men.
Stereotypes are invariably faulty because no group of people with a single obvious characteristic in common (gender, race, age, etc) can possibly be unilateral in all of their other characteristics. Women are no more carbon copies of each other than men are.-
negative fallacies seem to be the modus operandi for those spouting tired old stereotypes.
