We use information to form bonds with others. I m telling you this, and you should think well of me for doing so. And though women are known as gossip lovers, men are just as guilty. But what does differ between the genders is content. Men are much more interested in who's winning and who's losing, which explains their preference for competitive game playing, both on the field and in the workplace.
Women tend to gossip more about the fabric of relationships, who's in and who has merit.
