Girls and Shallow Minds


Eleanor Roosevelt once said: "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."

I was stumbling across quotes pictures when I found this one. Those words struck me immediately. How true those words are, and how shallow I had been all this time.

The night before, I had a conversation with a close friend of mine. He shared his thoughts that knowledge should never be exchanged for money, because... of some reasons I can't really retell (I know, bad memory). The thing is, we discussed ideas. He MADE me discuss ideas with him and such thing never happens when we're with all our other friends.

Then I realized that the discussions I've had with my male friends usually occurs on more worthy topics, while I spent most of my time with my female friends gossiping. Is it already set in our brain?
