Elena  +  5086 Wed, 20 Aug 03 09:08 AM I think men say less words than women, but in general terms, on average, because I know some talkative men and boy although I don't know any silent girl or woman. But I hate generalising, I think generalising is a big mistake, it is the source of many unfair things, generalising is a plague, generalising is easy and then the damage provoked by it it's almost impossible to amend....... Enough emotionally charged language Hitchhiker? :P I have to agree with you, yes, I think women use emotional language more than men, in general terms at least in this environment we , posters, live because world is huge thing, how is the talking-behaviour of men and women in the tribes who are living in Dhurua (India)?

	maj  +  5174 Thu, 21 Aug 03 05:25 PM Do men use more swear words than women? Which are their favourite ones? Do they have to do something with the opposite sex? Do they use them more when they are among members of their own sex? Could we have an exception, here, Hitch? This post is meant to analyse men's language.

	hitchhiker  +  5175 Thu, 21 Aug 03 05:55 PM Elena: Yep, of course you're right, it can be dangerous to generalise. My examples and thoughts are observations from my life and experiences (and that book!). God knows what, who and how! However, and I know this is a terrible thing to say, but i LOVE to generalise when it comes to us guys. No offence, but in my whole life I've only ever met 2 guys who don't seem to follow the usual patterns we all do (out of 1000s). I don't think, however, all men are ‘bad’. I think there are plenty of examples from both sexes of bad behaviour. There is no way you can say 'men lie, women cheat' or something. You'd just be wasting everyone's time. hitchhiker Joined on Mon, Nov 18 2002 Richmond, UK Senior Member 4,036 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...

	lilbit  +  42349 Sun, 15 Aug 04 04:10 PM Hi Hitch and Maj You two are funny. But I agree that there is no way to generalise women and men. And also I think they do speak different lanugages like Hitch was mentioning earlier with the translations. Hittin close to home on that one. lilbit Joined on Tue, Jul 20 2004 USA Full Member 202

	lilbit  +  42350 Sun, 15 Aug 04 04:11 PM Svetlana, do you not like women or perhaps not get along with them? It would seem so.... just curious. lilbit
