About this listen

In this episode we talk about how gender influences the way people speak and communicate. We start with a study on the differences between men and women using signed languages like ASL, then talk about a few studies examining the differences in word choice between cis-men and cis-women, and end with an article on trans men and what people perceive as “gay sounding” speech in men.
