    Here are the results of a study trying to answer just that question but I don't know if I can agree, based on my experiences as a married man and father to two sons and one daughter:

    I don't necessarily think women talk alot more that men. I just think we are much more expressive when conversing in general about topics that interests us, as the article suggests.

    She doesn't think it's fair for the woman to be listed second. :p

    I would generally say "women" as well. Of course, it's not true of all men and women. One of the guys I work with talks and talks and talks on the phone all the time. He drives me nuts.

    Despite what I said in my initial post, neither my wife nor my daughter are really big talkers. Interestingly enough though, most of my wife's female friends talk a lot. My wife just sits on the phone and listens.

    I dislike talking on the phone for long periods of time unless it's an unusual situation. In fact, half the time when the phone rings, I want to pick the thing up and throw it out the window. :tongue

    I'm a bigger talker than my wife is... but neither of us are typical.

    women talk far more than men, if a man calls anyone on the phone the conversation is usually less than 2 minutes whereas a conversation between 2 women can last up to 2 hours.

    Unfortunately, in my experience, it's women. It's not that we're more expressive than men; they just normally get to the point quicker. They want to do more important things with their mouths. Like pour pints into them. :rolleyes: :biggrin
