Do women talk too much?
And your answer is?
This just has to be wrong? A recent study says men talk even more than women! That goes against my sterotype image I have of women. Darn, there goes another male cherished belief. I guess the obvious next question is what do the different sexes talk about?
Hold on amigos, another study I just read about says females talk too much about the negative things in their lives frequently to the point of being counter-productive. Sure its good to vent and get things off your chest, however dwelling too long on any negative can lead to depression. Women find more comfort in sharing their misfortunes than do men. However, the study says that carried to extremes this can do more harm than good. This can be particulary damaging to teen girls.
So what do the men talk about most...inspiring things like philosophy, philanthropy and how to make the world a better place. Not buying that huh? How about sports, work, beer and women!
I'm starting to feel better....
And what does this all mean? As usual I haven't got a clue, I just found it interesting!

I think we need to check the TRUE dictionary here about the two definitions of "talk". The true definition of "talk" as applying to men is communication centered toward getting needs met, showing off, or making himself feel good. The True definition of "talk" from the female perspective is "to communicate toward the end of buiding up my image of myself (which is why they focus on the negative things-- makes them feel better than the one less fortunate) or getting the male to agree with her PERFECT statement and to totally realize he HAS no viewpoint!"
Looking at it that way, yes men actually DO talk more than women, but looking at the female viewpoint WOMEN talk more. It's simply a matter of who uses less words with MEN. Women analyze too much which results in a LOT of talking. They say "you SAID so and so but you MEANT..." when in all reality, the man said EXACTLY what he meant-- he doesn't think far enough ahead to MEAN something else. Bottom line?-- Whatever the man says is WRONG! (even if it isn't) Ho Oponopono that one!!
