Hey everyone, I don't post here often, but I just had a burning question inside me that really needed to be answered by people who probably know more than me:
Women seem to go nuts for the "oh, I'm married to John, but I'm in love with Ricky, and I'm having an affair with him" type stories... Or the "she told everyone your deepest darkest secret, your life could be ruined" type stories...
My question is: Why? What makes drama so attractive to women? It also seems like they go out of their way to make things in their lives more dramatic, like flirting with another guy just to make some guy jealous, and stuff like that...
And with the rise of such books as Gossip Girl and Twilight, and shows such as, again, Gossip Girl, The Hills, Grey's Anatomy, etc., I just had to ask the question that has probably been asked millions of times before... So sue me...

So, are you wondering why the women on these shows are like that, or women in real life. If you are talking about the women on those shows, it's because they are actors and they are doing there job, reading scripts and such, acting it out for the camera. If you are talking about the drama associated with real life women, it is because they are completely f**king nuts, all of them, even your mom and sister, they are all friggin' crazy.

Okay, here's what I really think. If you get these chicks that dig those shows and worship that Sarah Jessica Parker girl on Sex In The City, and try to emulate Eva Longoria on Desperate Housewives, etc. etc. etc., naturally those tarts are going to be a bit more gossipy, trendy, and more dramatic than say that quiet cute girl who wears sweats ever day and does her homework right after school in the library. Those hot chicks, the ones who hang in cliques and act all dramatic and talk out loud about who they are banging, they're too self absorbed to really connect with anyone aside of other hot chicks who are self absorbed and can't connect with anyone. It's kind of like their own little world, and no one else's world matters.
Stop paying attention to those girls and start noticing the hidden nuggets of goodness that also surround you, like that girl in the back of class with the glasses, yeah her. Trust me, as a person she is far more sincere and caring that those other hose beasts. And soon you will realize that their are actually a lot of women out there that aren't all that dramatic.

Not every woman thinks like that. But a lot do, unfortunately. Why? I have no clue. Some just want to be the center of attention, or pretend like their lives really have meaning.
Actually, the girl I really like is somewhere in-between those extremes and wears glasses
So I can notice the girl with glasses fairly well... But even she is a sucker for dramatic stuff (I hear Twilight is her favorite book, or something to that extent)...
So I still don't really understand why... It seems it's not just the "clique" girls, but also the regular girls, too...
There are women who do, women who don't, I wouldn't always consider it a bad thing necessarily.
These threads always pop up because of some silly argument or personal problem the poster is having, this thread may as well be called "Why does Stephanie love drama so much?", or something.
