CAUTION: if you're a GUY and you post after this YOU ARE GOSSIPING! Just read and move on if you think gossiping is the women's thing! Let the count begin,

Yes women do gossip, but NOT half as much as men. I am under the assumption you have NOT met the "shims" of Nairaland? hmmmmmmmm. if only you know, you would stack upon Always and Tampons just for their sole purposes,

The 3 fastest ways to spread information.
1.Telephone
2.Television
3.Tell a Woman.
If a Woman don't gossip,then she has failed to live up to being a woman.
I'm sorry I'm being sexist here but when guys do it in the club,its called 'gisting' Grin Grin

And when they do it in the house, the bar, the coffee house, the street, on yim/aim/icq/msn etc?  It's still gisting se? Undecided. . .like i said, more fascinating to watch them do it Tongue

Gossip could be real fun.
I love to gossip holly wood stars, especially who's dating who and who's dumping who, who's getting married, who's getting a divorce and who's having a baby.
It's always fun, that is why E! entertainment is my all time best T.V. Station!
Bad thing about gossip though is if you talk about it without getthing the facts, you feel a kind of shame when u finally discover you said what wasn't true.
So ladies be careful with gossips.

 Interesting debate here Smiley

da easiest way 2 find out which sex/gender gossips more 's simple,

evryone in da house shld observe in your various homes,offices,joints etc,  which guy/girl has da "latest" gist on a fellow?,
who has da hottest "info" on a fella?

In ma house 4 instance,i've got a cousin(girl),she's here in Lag but she knows da latest gist in Enugu,she knows da family that has quarrel going on, she also got "info" on how our neighbor's wife travelled 2 whereva & when she'll be returning Huh Huh
she's so good @ it that in da Villa she's known as "CID"

well u just look around & u'll tell who has da latest gist on another fella, It could be u - yes u reading or maybe me sef

@ iice,
Bring it on hon! Gossip could be real sweeett!
By the way, do you know Hale Berry is 3 months pregnant?
Old gist shay, but I love the feel of it. I hope the baby is as beautiful as she.
And u know what, she's 10 years older than her boy friend and doesn't even have the intention of getting married. Said she prefers to have the baby outside wedlock!

ahahahahano put me and you for the same room oooothat's all we will talk about Grin Grin
Yup i know, he's a male model and i don't blame her on the marriage thing, she has tried and it just hasn't worked out for hermaybe who knows, in the future she may change her mind but nevertheless i wish her all the blessings and hope her child is healthy and lovely.
Know that Britney lost custody of her kids?  She has visitation rights but not sole custodyhehehe she needs a good smack in her head to get her thinking straight lolKnow that Sharon Osbourne and Courtney Love are kindda feuding?  I love Sharonthen again, Courtney can be great sometimes Tongue
Heard Usher will name his kid Usher V or is it VIdon't remember lolwants to keep the name running lol
Oooohhhh and what about diddy? I heard he spends like no mans bizness and his entourage is large, he even has someone who makes his cocktails/drinksthat's the guy's only job!! And the guy can't mix cocktails/drinks for anyone elseonly diddy Grin Grin He has 4 bodyguards just for his jewelry, has someone to see to his wardrobe and another to pick out the clotheswhen he's in london, he only gets suits in black and whiteabout 50 of them!  This comes from a woman who 'supposedly' had an affair with him just before (or was it after) his relationship with Kim went belly up!

Re: Why Do Women Love To Gossip?
« #47 on: October 04, 2007, 05:29 PM »

Oh my gosh!
tell me about diddy. We all know the guy has too much money! You know, the last time I saw him was on Ellen D's show, he said he sleeps very late and he was asked what he does with all his time, he said 'he loves to make love a lot'!
Every one laughed and they teased him about his wife's pregnancy with twins.
I sort of like the guy sha, he's cool.
Usher, Usher, do you know what ever happend between him and chilie, I never really got to follow the story of y they broke up, they seemed good together and it beats me y he always seems to be attracted to older women.
Yes, about Britney and her 2 kids, I feel for her but she should have seen it coming with those parties she never seemed to be tired of.  I've not been seeing her around Paris lately, is there any wahala between them?
What about Nicol's pregnancy, with that very thin body of hers, i wonder how she's managing with the pregnancy. You know her BMI is lower than normal, My gosh, I hope she goes through with it. Not heard about her since after her few hours jail term.
Please, tell me what more has been happening, not really been current, I got a new job and it's really demanding. Get home too late and tired for T.V.

yimiton Grin
I don't get to watch TV as much as i did beforemost times i go reading on www.eonline.com Grin Grin There was a time, i never used to miss ET! Grin Welladjustments you know lol.  Don't really know the deal behind Usher and Chilli's breakup Undecided Ahhh Nicole is getting to the 6th monthshe has added weight, there is supposed to be a wedding but she says they are stilling thinking if to do it before or after the child is born, they don't want the child to think that just because she got pregnant she will marry.
Hmmmm lets seeaniston is the money making face according to forbes don't know how that happened, never liked her Grin. . .she has sold more magazine when she's on the cover than anyone elsein 2nd placewho else but ex hubby Brad Grin Grin
No much wahala between Paris and Nicole, although Paris did blunder (or was it on purpose) saying that Aguilera is the most beautiful mother to beI think Nicole is wrapped up in her baby to be and Joel, to think of Paris Grin Grin

Women love gossip because most of them have nothing doing; we all know that an idle mind is the devil’s workshop; and most women have made themselves the devils workshop due to idleness.

Youre wrong girl.
There are three things that bring Men together.They will always talk about it.
Money,Sports(football here in Naija) and Women(well sex is a better way to put it).
Now its not not who is sleeping with who but who is worth the trouble of sleeping with.
Tell me that is gossip, Ill say its just 'gisting'

Hay iice,
Thanks for link. I'll check it out although I'm afraid it will never be as cool as hearing it on E! with Guilliana De Pandi and Ryan Seacrest. But it's better than nothing.
I didn't use to like Aniston as well but I've been loving her recently, I loved her in break-up and some how Tery Hatcher (fell in love with her in Deperate housewives) simply reminds me of her.
I'll just run along and check this link because if we decide to talk more here, mine oh mine, this will become a very very long thread.
Do have a nice day!

@ Yimiton
I think i like u, You r a real woman
its very hard to find a honest woman who admits their true gossiping nature
All we see are wannabes who like secrets and darkness and want to blame others as faultier than them
One thing people fail to realise is that talkative gossiping women are most likeable and safer to be with.

Actually a non gossiping woman is more capable of deadliest of crimes like MURDER, find out about serial killing, evil deceptive women then u will understand what i mean.

u be correct chick jare be yourself!

@ iice & yimiton that was an appetizer  Wink

Every body is prone to gossip, i don't see anybody crossing out the fact that women gossip, to now make it absolutely a woman thing is what struck me, knowing that we have this people called 'men' as our brothers. Its fun to gossip, fyn, but that shouldn't be accrued to a particular sex. your Father, mother, brothers, sisters gossip, everybody does, its only the gravity & content that matters.abeg make i relax, chew my bubble gum

lets go down the memory lane.eve was created from adam.the rib of goosip was taken from adam, first point. eve was bored and was looking for a company.the devil came and a gossip session started(what God said and what not).that was the very first gossip  on earth.therfore who says that women shouldnt gossip???when you guys leave your babes for another girl,when bosses intimidate the ladies under them,when husbands love late nights,when foodstuffs get to expensive, gossiping is our way of complaining !that does not mean that the guys are innocent, no way,na them bi the original AMEBO.gbegborun is always their topic once in a joint !
