It also made me chuckle a bit because some (female) friends and I were discussing how men are terrible gossips, and yet they accuse women of being the same.

Yep...not only spread by men... men who really seem to dislike Mary Todd Lincoln. They are the ones who seem to like to keep the Rutledge motor running the most, imo.
