It's all over the morning news. The anchors are doing schtick about it. But the SJG isn't surprised to learn that girls talk more than boys. The only time I ever got in trouble in school was for talking.
The Today Show says it all comes down to something called "language protein." Gals have more of it than guys. One point for our team! So. We have more to say. However, I think the study left out an important component. Based on my own lifelong research, gals talk more with other gals when no guys are around. Once a dude enters the picture, the chitchat quotient changes. Four gals at lunch: Gab-a-rama. Two gals at lunch: Gab-a-tosis. Two gals and two guys: Yo-Gabba-Gabba. The gals talk softly, about Deep Important Stuff. The guys talk loudly, about Surface Stuff, drowning us out. Life is a major gab-fest, no matter whose mouth is moving more.
