TRY being the operative word. Harley, don't make me post the comment you made about LA's wife. When you go at someone, you go HARD, nothing but kill shots.

OH I beg to differ, mademoiselle

That was SOOOO not gossiping,,,,that was stating the obvious Shit!

C'mon now, Ms.Cynda, you oughta know better If it quacks up a storm,,,,,you don't need me to confirm to you that its a DUCK

Harlepolis said:

Okay, damn, I stand corrected.

I don't understand why women think they are not as violent as men. I watch the Bad Girls Club sometimes (a guilty pleasure), and I flick through all these Rock Of Love/I Love New York-type shows and that's all I see are chicks ready to get their fists on. Then there's this thing called "Violent girl syndrome", and I also remember how the girls in my high school acted, and I gotta call the 51% of the world's population out on this one.

Because we don't kill as much as men, there aren't as many of us in jail or in gangs or in the military.

If by gossip you mean trashing other people behind their back, I don't get it either.

If by gossip you mean simply talking about the goings on of people you know, then everyone I know does it, men and women alike.

CarrieMpls said:

Yes, the former.

Vendetta1 said:

Right, and that's the thing. . . men tend to be more, just, 'what you see is what you get'. Women are sooooo much more likely to be pretending/backstabbing.

tackam said:

I guess I haven't gotten that. Maybe I'm naive, or maybe I have selective memory or maybe I've just been really lucky. I'm not saying it's not accurate, just that I don't know any backstabby women.

CarrieMpls said:

It's like the closet gays. You know them, you just don't know you know them

tackam said:

I am such a dude.

Plus, women I don't like tend to know it. I don't think "fake" is in me.

because talking to each other feels good (apparently) and bonding through information exchange releases all sorts of feel-good chemicals in our bodies. Once we run out of information to offer about ourselves, we start offering information about other people

and the answer to the age old myth that women talk more than men:

A husband looking through the paper came upon a study that said women use more words than men.

Excited to prove to his wife that he had been right all along when he accused her of talking too much, he showed her the study results. It read "Men use about 15,000 words per day, but women use 30,000".

The wife thought for a while, then finally she said to her husband "It's because we have to repeat everything we say."

The husband said "What?"

A drama and gossip queen. Usually the two go hand in hand.

CarrieMpls said:

Seriously, if I'm not directly involved in it one way or another, I'm not interested. I'm too self centered to discuss other people's lives I guess.

Don't make me make a special trip to Canada

CarrieMpls said:

what? lol ..


.. you're very fortunate then lol

Flowers2 said:

I've been really thinking about this. Now I can think of one friend over the years who may fall into this category and maybe a few women in my extended family but of all the other women I've known through work, through family, through friends, etc. it's pretty rare that I can see that in any of them.

CarrieMpls said:

Hopefully you don't find yourself in a scenario like Steven King's 10 O clock people where their true nature is revealed to a banker but only he can see what they truly are. You might need medication if you found out you're surrounded by monsters

CarrieMpls said:

I know a lot of cunts. They're definitely out there and dare I say even a majority. But that said, none of my female friends are like that at all.

JustErin said:

Co-sign.

JustErin said:

got that right.. and say it again..

Is it really necessary to carry a purse, ladies? Don't y'all get tired of toting around a bunch of crap all the time? Do you feel completely dressed only with a bag, or do some of you often say "screw it" and go bagless?

CarrieMpls said:

I personally don't know any either and from what I've heard from people I know, "backstabby" behaviour seems just as prevalent in males

Lammastide said:

did that today, could therefore not produce my medicare card upon request today

Lammastide said:

I don't get it either. I don't carry a purse.

Lammastide said:

yes it is necessary! that is part of the outfit..must match the shoes.. No, we do not get tired .. can never be tired of Gucci or LV .. neva..

Lammastide said:

No, I need a purse and it's jam packed too...and I need what's in it.

ZombieKitten said:

Ahh... so is the purse somewhat of a psychological comfort against forgetting... something?

Lammastide said:

No, it's a necessity, damn it!
