The Talking That Really Matters

Are women really more talkative than men? Does it matter?

Not really. According to the researchers behind this study, "sex differences in conversational behavior have long been a topic of public and scientific interest." This stereotype, however, has aged over the years, and it’s not as relevant today. To me — and most other people — it makes no difference whether men or women speak more. The question that we should be asking is — who has the ability to speak with higher quality?

This is just one example of a

A higher quality of speaking, formed from proper diction and grammar, can help a person convey their thoughts clearly. Many factors determine a person’s ability to do this; personality, upbringing, and societal norms are some important ones. An extrovert will tend to communicate more fluently than an introvert. While this true, many people do not have access to the most important factor: education. The main purpose of education is to provide a student the tools to effectively communicate with others. Education in any language or culture can improve a person's communication, and it provides the student with a more accessible path to success. Of course, many people have been successful without a proper education, but it is easier to stand-out from the crowd if you have a proper education. The issue is that not everybody has access to education, and even if they do have access, many learn in environments that hinder proper learning. Performing an in-depth research study on this topic would have helped society much more than the one I mentioned earlier about men and women.

I believe this is a lesson for all of us. Let's phrase our questions so that they improve society. Let me know if you agree or disagree in the comments section below!
