Quote

So women are at the beginning of building a language, and not all women are conscious of it.

Women have a greater verbal capacity.

I don't believe for a minute that women really want to be understood by men.

I find that with some girls, the words 'work' and 'education' have gotten a bad rap.

Some of the brightest and best women in our society are stifled in their ambitions.

Genteel women suppose that those things do not really exist about which it is impossible to talk in polite company.

For most women, the language of conversation is primarily a language of rapport: a way of establishing connections and negotiating relationships.

Women are more complicated communicators than men, who have a tendency to pronounce and bloviate, and that makes for better writing in talky work.

There are millions of women who are trapped in lower-paying jobs and don't have the skills for a higher-paying job, and don't have the money or the time to access the higher education that they need for a better job.

In a way, women are a psychic immigrant group.
