Sure, Men Gossip

From time immemorial the word
gossip has been associated with the
feminine gender. writes Rosalie
Neish in the London Standard. 1t Is
women who are supposed to take
away characters, start rumors, ana
tear regulations into shreds. 1t may
be true that women like talking
about one another, and sometimes
not over good-naturedly, but are men
entirely free from the gossip habit!
What about the club? Are the sub
jects always serious, and do not per-
sonalities form large part OF the
conversation? I know a good many
club men, and I have often heard
with amazement what they have
said about one another.
There was a time when men were
supposed not only to condemn but
actually to dislike a cup of afternoon
tea. Perhaps there was time when
men did not gossip. and the tea and
, the talk have become popular to-
gether. But what about Pepys's d.
airy?
Here were really some choice bits
Of gossip. >If, however, you do not
believe that men gossip nowadays.
ask one in to tea--we will say bar
rister, for example. Begin to praise
one or two X. C.'s and some Of the
judges, and see what he will say
about them: or ask a politician what
he thinks of another politician, or a
soldier what he thinks Of some Of
the generals-you can apply this
test to all the trades and professions.
There are plenty of broad minded
and intelligent people who talk
things" rather than persons; there
are also plenty of gossips who talk
nothing but people. and il you ask
me whether these gossips are men or
women, should say there were six
of one and a half dozen of the
other. If men appear to gossip on
the whole less than women, it is
chiefly because they have less time
! for small talk.
