Gender Talk

Hi~
We are tired today, but interesting~
This morning, we had a viedo lecture wich is about studies on the differences and ability of using language bewteen men and women.There were 3 studies with 3 couples.The experts devided them into 3 men and 3 women.

The first reaserch is experts asks all of them as fast as possible to read sentences wich have word spelling mistakes and correct mistakes right way. For men, few of them are not good enough to read fast with correcting mistakes. On the other hand, women well done for this test. They read fluently more information and they could quickly search vocabulary from their brain.

The second reaserch is experts want to know the differences of creating language bewteen men and women. Experts let them have a free talk. During the talking time, men have 10 topics and women only have 1 topic. The difference is women would like to focus on 1 topic and to deeply talking about it. After this reaserch, men explained that they can feel and see something , however, they feel hard to write their feeling down and speak out. Women said they like to talk about one thing deeply,because they could get the good information from each other and they could know each other as well.

Another study is about whether men or women could do many tasks at the same time. They let them ask questions with earphones to someone and experts will speak with the person who are asking questions. In this way, experts observed that men cann't speak when they listening , however, women can do it well. Therefore, experts observed that women have better ability of learning language than men.

Haha~~~~I'm soooo happy to hear that~actully I can feel very much in these reaserches from the daily life, such as when the men playing computer games, they won't answer any questions for others. I think it's not like they doesn't repect others, it's just like they can't do it. They can't think or respone many tasks at the time very well. So, pretty women ~!Don't angry with men when they do not response u~!Please forgave them~!

Hello Xixi,

Wow, you made a good job with the video´s review.
Regarding the point that women are better in language I can tell you that I studied Language and Literature at the University in Spain and 80% of the students in this field were women. And not only studying but also teaching. Interesting, eh?

looks like u wrote a lot hehe
i think we were so tired today. I believe that the best point for men is we always concentrate to do something, such like playing computer game. For women, multitasking is famous and amazing but concentration is also important. haha, anyway,i like this reaction writing.
