I've never seen a more brainlet linguistic take than: "men and women don't speak differently in [natural language here]"
Because a vast majority of the time yes they fucking do. It may not be as pronounced like in Japanese, but damn if they speak *exactly the same*.
Something I've noticed over years of looking at different languages.
Men (or extremely tomboyish women)
- often use a lot of truncated/clipped/reduced forms
- drop formalities quicker than women
- in the case of languages like Japanese or Korean, they use the harsh/vulgar register to tease or mock their friends. (おい、やめろよ!)
- don't tend to use tag questions that often
Women (and effeminate men):
- don't typically use reduced/truncated forms unless speaking quickly
- are less quick to drop formalities
- (mostly in asia but other countries as well) try to sound cute
- higher use of tag questions ("right?" "huh?")
>hears branches snapping and something sounding like a scream, howl, and metal scraping simultaneously
>nearest shelter besides this tower is all the way across the fucking campsite
>instantly regret life choices
Working at a campsite is fun because I'm like 90% sure I've seen some strange creatures during the night shifts when I have to fix things.
"Hey, we need you to fix the tower cam"
Okay thanks asshole, let me climb several hundred meters up a fucking tower to change the camera for the weather. Fuck you, that's not horrifying enough in daylight but doing it when its the black of night is so much worse.
@alyx @Mr_NutterButter the english language is full of confusing homos.
homonyms (bank/bank, bark/bark, lie/lie)
homophones (too/to/two, there/their/they're, knot/not)
homographs (read/read, content/content, desert/desert, lead/lead)
