Ways Men And Women Communicate Differently
 Email and Text Messages-
• Most of the Email women send revolves around relationship: being
supportive, making suggestion, apologizing, asking questions and
offering thanks.
• Men Email message are very different. Not only do more often portray
himself as subject, experts, but they have a more continuously
interaction style, implying sarcasm profinity and insult.
• Men try to focus on facts and seek immediate resolution, action is the
conversation goal. Women design more extensive talk about problem
sharing, appealing common expenses.

Interuptionary:-
Women interrupt to show common. But they think men disrupt the discussion
shifting the subject. Men do try to control the conversation by disrupting it.
They also believe women’s supportive interjection. For example goon are
interjections.
Chatterbox:-
 Women spend more talking more time with family and close friends,
expressing support and discussing experiences.
 Men tend to talk more at walk and informal on social settings, and their
goal is the exchange of information, even when conversing with a buddy.

Compliment:-
Women always expects compliment from men and while giving compliment.
They play with their words in such a manner that usually the receivers gets
confused on that she trying to say.
Apologizing- women use apology to try to create to maintain connections. Men
are concerned with that an apologizing might do. It might lower them to a
subordinate position. A place where they have never wanted to be

Argument:-
Women often try to get their point across by asking may types of question:
defined informational and rhetorical. The questions are designed present on
opposition on gathers. Men’s contributions to agreements are often simple
and direct. They’re so straight forward in contrast to women’s questions, That
men not even realize that a conflict is occurring.
Non- verbal Conversation
Touching Facial expression
Body proximity Postures
Gestures

Significant differences exists between male and female brains. Feel, think as
respond in the some ways. Either on the inside or on outside. “the brain is
made primarily of two different types of tissue, called ‘Gray’. And white
matter. This new research reveals that men think more with their gray matter,
and women think more with white”.

Women and Men Talk Differently


1. Amount of the time:
 Stereotypes tell that women talk more than men.
 Women ‘s talk are often refered as gossip, chatter, nag and rabbish.
 Plentiful but pointless.
 In the mixed sex conversation the average amoint of time for which a
man talks is twice as long than women’s.

2. Turn Constructed and Interruption:-


 Men interrupt women so much because they believe they have more
right than women to speak in mixed sex conversation.
 Women in the single sex conversation over lap one another talk.
 Overlapping is different than interruptions.
 Shows that women value co-operation and collaboration in
conversation.

Back Channel Support:-


 Women are active in being back channel support (supporting roles) than
men do.
 Refers to the verbal and non-verbal feedback listeners give to speakers.
Ex. “Mmm, Uhh, Yeah, I know, right? Nodding and smiling.
 Women know when to slip in back channel support in conversation as
opposed to men.

Mitigated and Aggravated Forms:-


 Women use more hedges and epistemic modal forms (speakers attitude
to the utterance) than men.
 Hedges: sort of like, I think, kind of.
 Epistematic modal forms: should, would, could, may and might.
 Women are less confident. They’re not sure to assert anything to
strongly.
 To avoid confrontation.

Topic Discussion:-
 Women select more personal topics.
 In contrast, men prefer more important topic based on factual or
technical ledge.
 Football, cars or home, improvements.
 Women select- Family, emotions and friendship.
Women conversation focused on the development and maintenance of the
relationship between speakers raised by the exchange of intimate details and
supportive listening. All women and men are group the first stage of the 1. Co-
operative and 2. Compitative.

1. Women’s competitive conversation takes place holding the floor which


lot of interrupts determine counter option in the e co-operative style. There
is less interruption in one kind of interruption try to floor it in a way.
2. Men’s conversation add to interrupts. It was said so nice. It is not the
interruption in competitive conversation. In mixed group conversation
women try the role of encouraging conversation its satisfied make ego.
In Japan, women escating women, sex worker, escart very important men in
these institutions how to speak more do not contract the whole satisfies
egoof the men. In Europe misroot subordinate route of conversation.

Competition:-
Fearing competition, ritual institution, jokes, each other, try to parden the
each other, ritualistic, insulting the men’s conversation, women’s
conversation the real insults all the conversation is different. There is not
soo much of less and it was more co-operative personal problems as
feelings, women talk about indicate men is about all world itself. There can
be stereotype not examining true men giving solution, addressing, whereas
women instead of advising empathizing underlies the situation better at
emotional conversation. In terms of topic gender roles this called as
difference between men and women.

What is the reason for difference?


Lekkoff says, difference is women. Inferior position this is powerless
language. Women subordinating position in the context the women use
language people say don’t talk about this is moves. Dominance of men
approaches. Men and women brought in two different cultures kitchen and
field metaphor to the people. Women are more connected to the nurturing,
existentialism society not born with it there are brought up occupied the
particular.
It is not that men are men or women are women which collects the data
male group that idea of masculinity they are showing the research shows
the conservation is actually speaks co-operation less arguments
cooperation kind of interruption. The conversation also not man and
women speak differently women become a women, as men become men
notices the performative action shown to be performance.
But the system in which we live the youngsters get less salaries in their early
days. What is the need of 1 lakh rupee to 50 years plus man? In older days we
get high salary. What is the use of it when you have lived your average larger
part of your life? I know, that there will be lot responsibilities but just think of
the situation where you get your initial salary around 50k. That life will be
more enjoyable than zigzagging your entire youth days just going for 9 to 5 job.
I was reading the self-help book which said that it’s the dissatisfaction from job
that makes the individual suffer both mentally and physically. WTF. You give an
individual 50k salary and look how his life changes. There is no greater
helplessness than having job and not being able to fulfill your and your family
demands. I know you will oppose this because you have been taught money is
not the key to happiness. Money is one of the keys to happiness but the
system in which you are living will not pay you good scale because it wants you
to stand in front of it begging for subsidiaries, scholarships pension and what
not. The more you are begging, more you are losing your self-confidence. I
know it’s funny but I have started to believe that all the self-help book writers
are bootlickers of government. They try to provide you alternatives which can
keep you ignorant of real questions.
