In my opinion, a typical men conversation will consist of 25% gossip and 75% discussion. A typical conversation among (most) women will be the opposite.

When guys are talking about something, they usually have themselves all stretched out and are usually loud. Women on the other hand are almost always leaning into each other when talking and they'll try to make sure that any unwelcome party does not hear what they are saying. That should tell you who's most likely to be gossiping at any one time.

while clearly gossip is not necessarily malicious ... its idle talk about peoples personal affairs period

anyway - sawa wacha nirudi udaro basi ... baby class infact ...

Women with class, DONT gossip.Ask me I know

Its a matter of perspective. Those who think they have class usually think theyve gained it coz of the degree of mud theyve put on the rest, so their class goes higher in respect to how much they can put the others down.

And those whom they are pakaring matope also do the same..... thing is both groups share their perspectives about each other to other neutral people. (Guess its a way of telling the world you are better than the other).

So mkenya here sits back and watches gal A, slinging gal B, coz she thinks she has class.

Note i have used alot of the word "think". Its all in the head. In reality, very little separates the two.

Gossip is talking (sometimes maliciously) about others in their absence. It follows, therefore, that everyone on this thread is gossiping about the rest of the species who are happily living their lives. And also about posters who are not necesarily online. So if gossip is a crime...we're all guilty

I was just itching to get online to post a gossip conversation I heard between 2 jamaas while on my way home on Saturday afte.

Went something like this ...

So and so hujisikia sana ... na vile ako na manzi mrefu kumshinda
He he he he kumbe huyo ni manzi wake?
Kwani wewe hujui. Yeye huni-bore, kwanza anajipitisha hapo ka amevaa vest
Ati vest
Eeeh! na vile ame-thin
Sasa anapita hapo kujionyesha .... etc etc

Clearly, this is a pair of men who feel kimnadho cos maybe they don't have a regular squeeze wa kuwapunguzia nyege. And I thought gals gossip vibaya. Men's gossip is LETHAL -
