Study: Women Talk More Than Men

Women Talk More Than Men

The next time you tell a woman she talks too much, you’ll have a scientific study to back you up.

It is something one half of the population has long suspected – and the other half always vocally denied. Women really do talk more than men.

In fact, women talk almost three times as much as men, with the average woman chalking up 20,000 words in a day – 13,000 more than the average man.

Women also speak more quickly, devote more brainpower to chit-chat – and actually get a buzz out of hearing their own voices, a new book suggests.

Here’s the kicker: talking is a drug to women.

And, if that wasn’t enough, the simple act of talking triggers a flood of brain chemicals which give women a rush similar to that felt by heroin addicts when they get a high.

All this comes from a female psychiatrist, so she knows of what she speaks. And speaks, and speaks, and speaks.

    And now you know why men and women have so many communication problems every day. When he comes home from work he’s done with his 7K words for the day and she still has 13K left !!!!

    Especially thinking of the fact that one of the main differences between men and women is that he sill is the “hunter” and she is the “collector”. He does a quick aim for his target, shoots and goes home, while she goes wandering around and picking up what ever she can find, testing, tasting collecting.

    Men and women do the same with information. An example:

    He and she want to go to a party tonight with their friends. He calls his bud:

    “Hey bro, there’s this party tonight. Wanna come?”
    “Yeah. When?”
    “Bout 10.”
    “Pick me up?”
    “Yeah.”
    “Cool.”
    “Cool.”
    “Bye.”
    “Bye.”
    Both guys together needed a total of 20 words to fix the plan.

    Now she calling her friend:

    “Hello sweet heart! How are you today?”
    “Hi, oh I’m just great, I just tried this new skirt we saw in the window of that shop in town yesterday. Remember? It was the green one with the black dots all over. You know, I thought it would match my new shoes just great so I thought, hey, why not? Its not really a cheap skirt, I know, but heck it could be the last chance. What if it’s soled out tomorrow? I’d so hate my self.”
    “You mean the green one with the black dots we saw in the window of that shop Melissa used to work in before she started her own shop?”
    “Melissa? Oh my god. I had no idea! Did you know that her ex boyfriend started a singing carrier now? At least I heard so. I never understood why she left him, though. Isn’t he so cute?”
    “Oh, you mean Ronald? Really? Oh my god! I bet he’d like that skirt. How does Jack like it?”
    “My husband? Oh, he wouldn’t care if I went naked or started wearing his underwear. He’s such a dork.”
    “Oh, yeah, I know what you mean. Men!”
    “Yeah, men!”
    “So how is the skirt?”
    “I brought it back?”
    “Oh, so sorry dear. Why? Was something wromg with it.”
    “Ah, no not really but I had the feeling it makes a big but. Do you think I have a big but?”
    “Oh my god! No. You know, I whish I had your body. Really. I totally envy you!” (Makes a note: Get the green skirt. Lisa’s ass is too fat for it. Should look great on me.)
    “By the way. Ron and I where thinking of going to that party tonight. Do you and Jack want to come too?”
    “Sounds great. Waht do you think I should wear?”
    “You could try the black dress you wor last time. I think it looked so cute on you!”
    “Yeah, but do you remember that this fat girl from Poland wor exyactly the same?”
    “Oh, my dear! Yes, I forgot about that.”
    “It was so embarrasing!

    and so on …
    and so on …
    and so on …

    Now imagine the woman calling Jack instead.
    I can understand why some people think that men and women just don’t fit together.

    There just is no way they can come along, simply due to their biological and genetical differences.
