Gender and Communication
This post might be longer than most. Yes. I believe men and women use language a lot differently. I believe women are more intuitive and can read non-verbal communication a lot differently. How am I going to support my personal belief? Well, when boys and girls grow up they learn “expectations’ that run parallel with their gender. Women tend to use language inclusively. Examples of inclusivity works from small signs. I believe small signs are things such as body language. Of course men, who are structured to draw from more exclusivity don’t use inclusivity. So we believe the small things don’t matter as much. Which means, even though men don’t realize what they’re doing, they might be sending the wrong signals to women. Going back to my man point, women are more intuitive and read non-verbal communication by looking at body language, or non-verbal indicators to communicate with other people based on inclusiveness behavior research.
