After all,women do talk more,at least in UK
Well, by a margin of 546 words per day only
The research also focused on words that woman normally use and man dont.
Quote:
# Emotional intelligence: Something that men usually do not possess, instead preferring the kind of intelligence that involves dates of battles
# Kitten heels: Or indeed heels of any other kind
# What are you thinking?: The classic female condition check
# Feminism: If even veteran feminists can't agree on what this means then it's probably best avoided by men
# Afghanistan:
A place where the debate is rather starker
# Agony aunt:
When men seek answers to life-changing problems in magazines, it tends to be under the headline "plasma or LCD?"
# Airbrushing:
The process by which magazine picture editors oppress women in an underhand way
# Why: As in "why do you never call?"

And that's statistically insignificant.
BTW, the survey was conducted in USA.

How come two days ago I read a statistical report that it's just BS that women talk more than men? It was saying, statistics proved that men talk equally as much as women.
I think it's the same study, which got misrepresented by some editor in UK...possibly due to poor knowledge about statistics.

Kabir, as Miraz pointed out, the difference was statistically insignificant (P=0.248, one-sided test; i.e. the probability of that difference occurring in the sample due to random chance was almost 25%; to consider it significant, you want that probability to be less than 5%).
Interestingly enough, the most laconic and the most verbose individuals in the study were both men, speaking estimated approximately 500 and 47,000 words daily, respectively.

Now I'm sure, I read about the same study...but different interpretation.
Yes, they are statistically insignificant...although, I don't understand statistics all too well. My only subject that I was about to flunk in university...besides those A+s.
