Why Do Girls/ Women Like Gossip So Much?

humans are curious. But sometimes 'gossip' really could hurt us, especially the gossip is bias . And i do not want other guys know too much about me.

Women or female gender is naturally the talkative gender it follows the more vocal one. In a way, gossip girls are insecure and lacks attention or simply have nothing to do in life. They love to talk about other people's lives because no one likes to talk about the flaws of their own. It is a human trait that it is easier to look at what other people's activities than ones own activity. We used to point fingers more to other than our own. We see others faults than your own self. Gossiping is a habit. They do not mind what will be the feeling of the people they talk about. They never see proofs or evidence. It is pure hearsay.

Ahem, not only women likes to Gossip, men do Gossip too. There are women that are insecure, we cannot generalize it. They gossip because they want to say something bad to a certain person or women and she knows she can have credits or the result will be positive because her friends will approve whenever she says. That was the negative part. Gossiping is not healthy, as that is the time of harsh criticism, or time of making fun of someone. Many enjoy gossiping and they are not aware that they are hurting someone. Gossiping also lead to fight, if someone learn that she or he being gossiped about. Some gossip about their favorite star. Actually everyone is doing it, no matter how good or bad they say. We they harshly commented on someone without prove, that is a simple sign of being insecure.

The reason why women like to gossip most of the time because it's part of their trait personally. i have seen these kind of women even at work. it's completely normal since they are born to do so, despite the fact that some are quiet, most are obviously social person, that's why most women are getting into social responsibilities,status quo and probably gaining contacts with different people.

Gossip is a human trait,especially for woman.mostly likely if one is talkative it means it gossip a lot in his/her life.I agreen with that gossip sometimes can build valuable relationships for the two who all lke gossiping.

Why are guys prefer to solve things with their fist rather than their brain? You are asking something close to why are woman different from man. I suggest you speak with your close girl friends and see what they say.

I think this is so untrue. Because I have noticed that men gossip more than women in order to boost their machismo. I have observed this in my work and I have found that women talk about relationships, children, beauty products or recipes. While men would talk about the new girl in such and such office, or who has been promoted. Its really more of gossip. I used to kid my co-workers about this, and they all agreed.

The women I know mostly do it to be nasty to other people! If they aren't being nasty they love to goosip because they have pitafull lives! It brings excitment to their lives! Once in awhile I like to hear to the goosip around work but I don't use it to hurt people like other I know!

well i think both man and women can gossip so much but girls are a little bit more talkative. well it can do both like gossip some lies and such.

I like to gossip because it's fun and I want something to talk about so I have no other choice.

Gossip, For me its not because I'm not use to it talking peoples problems. for some girls they do relieving of stress of there own but you know I read an articles about being talkative they said that men are more talkative than women and in the survey almost 65% of men are more talkative than women and only 24% for women.Don't you think this is true.so if they are talkative so men is more like a gossip guy than women. crazy poster..

Gossiping for us girls is a part of friendship. It depends upon the other people who hear it as negative. It's like blogs- somewhat friendship blogs that divide friends yet multiply them.

lolz gud topic mahn i love this i also dont noe why girls like this topic so much gosip is in there blood..

I think that girls gossip because they are trying to find something to pass the time and to rant about thier eneymies.

I'm agreed with your last sentences, build valuable relationships, when in fact Gossips is not always about hurting others for your information, Gossips is sometimes based on true life of a people, not only a hoax, to be accepted in a group is also another exceptions, in fact gossip girl sometimes is much harder to be accepted in a group because she can use hoax story to make it interesting to hear and it can results hurting other people

Well according to me its a part of nature of a girl. They cant find more fun in anything other than gossiping. So its kinda their habit. Although not all women/gals are like this but majority of them is. Lol ;)

I agree that ANYONE who gossips is likely to have problems with insecurity and a need to focus on the faults or problems of others in order to make themselves feel better about themself. However, I don't agree that it's a natural trait for women - it may be that more women indulge themselves, perhaps because they are unhappy at home and have greater insecurities, but it's certainly not inbuilt into every woman's character - there are many of us who are considerate of the feelings of others and prefer to keep ourselves to ourselves and take people as we find them rather than choosing to participate in gossip sessions... In fact one of the people who got most upset with me because I simply wasn't interested in hearing a particular piece of gossip he was dying to tell me was a MAN! He got so frustrated because he kept dropping really strong hints about this piece of gossip and I simply ignored the hints at first and then eventually told him straight that I wasn't interested in hearing about it because I prefer to take people as I find them rather than judge them on someone elses' experience or hearsay. I'm not sure that I follow as to how gossip could lead to the development of valuable relationships though Crazy_Poster, unless it's because someone chose to befriend another person despite the gossip? Most gossip is pretty malicious and not exactly what I would see as being the basis for developing a great friendship otherwise?

I outright utterly despise gossip! I can not associate myself with such activity. I will have you know that gossip is not something specifically created by women. I know men who gossip just as bad as a woman, which is even worse. it is harmful spiritually and emotionally to the person they are gossiping about. I think gossip is most painful than lets say an injury. One can recover from an injury, one cannot recover from gossip!
