Depends what the gossip is about!!
If its a 'my god - that blokes amazing - the things he does with his hands/tongue/dick/big toe' (delete as applicable) then why would you complain?
If its a 'those pics were ten years out of date/5 stone out of date/somebody else's/photoshopped to make his tiny knob look like an elephants trunk!' - then I guess you'd be less pleased!!
As for downright bitchy/slagging off/shit stirring gossip - nobody likes or deserves this.
Everyone likes to have a natter and occasionally share experiences/compare notes - but the essential word is discretion. If its not hurting anyone and is light hearted banter and complimentary - where's the harm. If its not - keep it to yourself , take all said with an extra pinch of salt - and if it's about me - I want names, addresses, a detailed report of what's been said and by whom and a full page apology in the NME, the Sunday Sport and Knitting Today!  |

When i left my ex a few months ago i spoke to a few friends about my reasons for doing so and reasons behind it.
So called friends have actually turned this into gossip and I've have an awful lot of come back from it.
Some people get a kick out off it.
You certainly live and learn. |

Personally.... I think it firstly depends on if it true or not. There is no excuse for making shit up about people and passing it on as fact.... and no need for it with all the real stuff which is just laying there on a plate. So lying is ugly.
If you are going to say something you should at least be prepared to also say it to the person or people it involves... or at the very least put your hands up when caught. Not having the balls to admit it is bad.
Is it funny or not. Funny always gets a bigger thumbs up. Funny is good.

Called Chinese whispers, least you know who your friends really are and I hope you spoke to them as I would have done  |

"Good bad of ugly?
Everyone gossips....some of it is harmless but sometimes it can be full on nasty."

Ive heard a lot about gossip being a fairly integral condition of living in social groups......
I sed to frown at gossip columns and mags but came to the startling realisation that my interest (politics) is just another type of gossip..... |
