Men Just As Talkative As Women?

So it would appear, according to a new study, that men are actually just as chatty as women…
Researchers who bugged 400 students to log their chats found little difference in word count between the sexes.
The University of Arizona study, in Science, conflicts with previous US research suggesting women talk almost three times as much as men.
Whether someone was an introvert or an extrovert was more important, said relationship experts.
What are the 546 words women say that men don’t?
In the study, women spoke a daily average of 16,215 words during their waking hours, and men 15,669 words.
The researchers say this difference is not significant.
Lead researcher Matthias Mehl said: "What’s a 500-word difference, compared to the 45,000-word difference between the most and the least talkative persons?"
The most talkative man in the study used 47,000 words while the least used a little more than 500 over a few days.
The researchers admit that their findings may not apply to all men as they only studied university students.
Also – who were the men talking to? Because let me tell you, when you’re on the phone with a girl, you tend to be a lot more chatty than you’d normally be!
