10/27
Today in class we talked about how women are more likely to talk about eachother behind their backs than men. I think we are giving men too much credit. They can be just as pitty as women can. I have many guy friends and they talk just as much about eachother as my friends and I do. Men talk about eachother, but in a different way. Men, in my experience, talk about how the other guy is not "lucky" when it comes to the ladies, or how the other guy is lazy at work. When women talk about other women it is mostly about physical and sexual characteristics. Basically what I am saying is that men may think that they do not talk about other men behind their backs but they do. The main difference between men and women in this aspect is the content that is being discussed.

I partailly agree. I know from experience that men do talk about other men if they feel its going to better the situation for them.For example if two guys are trying to talk to the same girl, one might degrade the other to make themselves feel superior or as a more qualified candidate for that young lady. Me persoanlly, i tell women to talk to me about me and i dont want to hear about other dudes. Even with my lady friends when they ask me about other dudes and if they should talk to them, i never talk down on other guys but i give them options to consider before they hangout. For example i tell them to ask the guy to take them out, or take into consideration the times the guy calls them and dont let them come over so quickly. Most guys gossip in some for fashion, but its about petty stuff i agree.
Stereotype says that women talk about each other than men. I agree with some of parts and I do not agree. The reason is that men also talk each other. Just men have different ways to express themselves. I think the difference is that women talk more emotionally than men. For example, one of my friends always talks emotionally when she talks with her boy friend. When her boyfriend did not do what she expected, she blamed him. I think he did, but he just had a different way and she could not recognize. They misunderstood each other. We should and respect each other and understand our expressions.
