Gendering Talk

More about the book

The book presents a compelling argument that the challenges in male/female communication stem not from how they speak, but from how they listen. By analyzing real conversations, especially in romantic contexts, it explores theories of arousal and relationship dynamics. The author illustrates that communication is actively gendered, using examples from children's games, literature, and media. Ultimately, it reveals that the ways men and women communicate are more similar than often perceived, offering a fresh perspective on gendered dialogue.
