    Is sports not drama?

    I know what you're getting at, but sports maniacs are just as much into the drama and gossip of athletes - complete strangers, essentially.

    I think the love of "drama" applies to both sexes. It is maybe the way the genders react that has you feeling the way you do.

    Typically...men prefer dramatized action, women prefer dramatized interpersonal relationships -- both are forms of drama. Men gossip as much as women do; in fact they gossip most TO women. Women also gossip most to women.

    Because we like excitement? I thought all humans do.

    And I don't care for gossip and soap operas, FYI.

    We all like drama. The difference between men and women is.. men like to see drama and women like to 'cause' drama.

    They have a low tolerance for boredom and they HAVE to have something to whine about daily or their lives don't seem exciting or interesting to others (they think).

    Some of it boils down to just being vain.

    Obviously not talking about 100% of women.
