Men and women use language differently?
I absolutely agree that men and women use different language, or use the language differently. Both genders can say the same thing, but mean completely different. If a men was to tell us something mean and inconsiderate, we would take it differently than if we were to hear it from a women, and it all has to do with gender expectations. It is important to understand why men do certain things the way they do, and not try to change that, as well as women. There are things we do because we have been brought up to think certain way, and at many times we do things without even putting a thought to it. Both men and women have to study each gender to be able to communicate without stereotyping each others gender. It is important to realize that certain attitudes are almost built in to the person, and it would take a lot to change an attitude or a way someone uses language.

People of both genders can say the same thing with different meanings entirely. What's funny about it all, though, is how both genders go about it. They can both go about explaining the same thing in different ways, and that's where I found the biggest difference between their language usage. It's interesting, to say the least, and something I'd love to learn more about.
ReplyDeleteMe and dad even talked about it this week, when I brought this up, and he said that he wanted to learn more about it. It's no doubt that it would be very helpful for people to study this, and use in life.
