In my house, the women always talked more than the men. Although I’m no overly chatty myself, my mother spent hours on the phone every night, whereas my dad’s conversations were very to-the-point and no longer than 2 minutes enlarged. And in my own small family, I spend more day chatting than my partner, although the difference is only slight. Which is why I find it surprising that recent studies have shown that men talk more than women on average.

However, it additionally depends on the context — women are more chatty when talking to kids or classmates, and men are more chatty when it comes to spouses and strangers.

that seems to go against most commonly-held stereotypes, don’t you think?

What do you think of these findings? Are you the chatty one in your relationships?
