Study: 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.
