Is it really true that women speak/talk differently from men?

This is a very interesting topic, but it is actually quite hard to get a high grade, because you need to argue and be critical, NOT just list research findings, or

repeat comments in overviews of the field. Comment on the major differences that have been proposed and discuss how far it is reasonable to generalise in terms of

gender (i.e. think hard about the meaning of the ‘really’). The assignment can relate to English, or you can bring in comparative information about other languages.

Try and make your essay research based, rather than anecdotal (avoid ‘I think’ or ‘in my opinion’); keep anecdotes for occasional examples. You will need to think

about the nature of the sample used for the research studies you cite. Remember you need to look for counterevidence; even if you think men do talk differently from

women, you will need to examine the research that argues that gender may not be the key factor in many cases. You might want to start with Jenny Coates’s books (2013:

Chs 2, 3, 6, 11 and the theory chapter 13; 2004: the 2 chapters on language in interaction) and Litosseliti (2006): the chapters on language in the workplace.
