Why are girls consumed with gossip?

I know exactly what you mean.
I'm a cheerleader, and cheerleaders are worse than anyone when it comes to starting drama.
I hate it, I can't stand being around some of them.
I think it's SO dumb when girls are "best friends" and always fight about dumb things. My best friend and I have never had a big fight, and we've never fought about anything small & dumb.

And I agree, my cheerleading coach is in her 30's, her daughter, Lacey, is 13...and all she ever talks about is her daughter's life, and how she doesn't like this girl or that girl b/c they like Lacey's boyfriend or something, she starts drama with 13 year olds. I know many older women who start tons of drama.

Now-a-days? That's pretty much how it was when I was in high school, too. That was 20 years ago..
It's called immaturity, all kids go through it.
Boys aren't much better, trust me.
I have teenagers..

Some teenage girls AND BOYS do this. Most people of both genders grow out of it.

I have the same problem but I dont have any guy friends, at all. The only one guy friend i have is gay, so that doesnt count. You know why because they are all insecure, it all goes back to self esteem especially being a teenager. People view other people in their own perception and basically imagination. They dont know the reality of how that other person is until they actuall get to know them. So mean while they might judge or talk bad because they think the othe rgirl is better than them or some other issue of the sort.
