Thanks for your advice. Yes, I think you are right we'll need to sort out a few things .lol .I don't know what you mean by "for our favourite moderator". Isn't that you?. Sorry, but I must go now, it's mad here at the minute. I may not have read the sentence correctly... I'll have another look at it some other time. F.

Men and women communicate differently when talking about the same things too. Outside relationships I mean. Ask a man and a woman to describe a house they saw and it's likely to be:

Man It was nice, big, bright not much space to park but I liked the pool.
Woman There were 7 rooms; a kitchen, bathroom, living room, dining room, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. One bedroom was really small but the other was bigger and had this window facing the pool. The pool was really big with sun chairs.....

You get my drift!

Usenet is like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea - massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement...

well... i think women do use dramatic language, but they tend to talk crap , i mean what they talk is usually senseless, and never to the point

LOL! I would soooo love to agree, but I can't, but i'd love to (but i'll get hit).. so I can't..

hehe, The language women tend to use is definitely more emotionally charged. Which can cause problems when we (men, blokes, kids) translate it in our male minds.

It's funny. I've never really noticed that men and women talk in different ways. I guess it is because individual people speak so differently that I don't have time to notice the general man/woman thing.
I don't know. There's such a fuss made about gender differences, but I don't see that it's as prevalent as people say it is.
