I LOVE THIS !! Gossip has literally saved women's lives. Check out the book "Women Talking," by Miriam Toews! Thank you for this Emily! I often think men's derision of gossip is similar to their derision of the personal essay... shitting on something just because it's an art form women gravitate towards.
