How Male and Females students use Language differently

However, there’s not a particular constant style in which a person expresses himself or herself in all environments they are exposed to. The scope of this paper is to point out how differences in people in society affect the manner in which they share information in interaction with others with reference to Deborah Tannen’s “You Just Don’t Understand: Women and Men in Conversation. ” Thesis Statement: Even though communication seems like a simple exchange of information between parties, it is defined by various factors and has implications for human interactions in society. First and foremost, boys and girls communicate differently in an environment that encloses both genders. According to research by anthropologists and sociologists Janet Lever, Marjorie Harness Goodwin, and Donna Eder, men prefer to talk in public, women prefer to speak in lesser groups with their trusted friends.

Women are very selective in who they choose to open up to about personal issues, and such a person becomes a friend. It runs deep as opposed to men who just bond with others based on mere interactions. Genuine or not, my argument is that friendships are a consequence of communication with others. Thirdly, communication cannot be made level for everyone. There is no known mechanism to make the conversation environment fair for everyone. All this proves that no individual is glued to their conversational style and that communication can be enhanced for specific people to encourage or discourage them to communicate differently. To conclude, communication may seem simple but it is affected by various factors, and it has impacts on human interactions.
