While I suppose I can see how one can be adverse to gossip, the phrase you're looking for is averse to gossip.

Technically, if a person is averse to gossip then by extension they are also adverse to gossip, or perhaps more accurately are contributing to circumstances that are adverse to gossip. :)

If I see one more "would of" instead of "would've" I'm going to lose it.
