Anthropologist Elizabeth Cashdan of the University of Utah says the same hormones that tend to redistribute fat from the hips to the waist also make women physically stronger, more competitive and better able to deal with stress.

But you don't have to feel guilty for kibitzing about the people you know personally, or celebrities you don't know, because it was once essential for human survival and is what helped us form more complex societies than the animals have, say experts. "The one thing that sets us apart is that we can talk to each other," says Dr. Nicholas Emier, whose study showed folks gossip 80% of the time. "We can exchange social information. It is fundamental to being human." (National Examiner)
