Women vs. Men Language - Week 6

Women and men both has different ways on how they use language, but they also have similarities.  I truly believe it does reflect mainly on an individual's personality and liking in whether or not they are using language "like a woman" or "like a man".  Because young boys and girls are raised on a gender-driven society (and yes, I took a woman's studies course, so this is present today), they are inflicted behaviors on how to act, and what to say.  Based on how a child is raised, growing up does effect the "expectations" derived out of a female or male individual.  For example, I was raised with male and female siblings, a mother and a father all present, and my abilities to act "like a lady" were never more influenced because I had both genders available when growing up.  My boyfriend, on the other hand, was raised in a house full of females, without a male figure present until later in life, he however, wasn't told to "act like a man" either and show autonomy, because it was not present as much.  Now, these aren't concrete examples, just everyday (random) examples, of how men and women based on their raising of gender culture, can grow out of holding language speaking connected to his or her gender.  But, of course, men and women do not act stereotypical all the time, because even though we are taught how to identify our gender roles (unfortunately it is not justified for the LGBS&T community), we ultimately choose our own path to follow.  I also do believe, that women contain similarities in how they prefer to communicate, and same goes to men. We may categorize this concept, as women being attached to emotions, details, and mother nurturing, only because it is built as an instinct (inside DNA coding) or maybe because it was influential behavior as a child. I do see the relation, but I would not conceptualize women communicating in only in those particular means. ( same goes for male dominance, achievement, and superiority)
