Cluck Cluck Cluck

Two female friends were chatting during a social visit.  One had better communication skills than other.  (Don't become too excited by that statement.)  Both were focused on talking about their own lives, though Female "C" did initiate the visit's vocal exchange by asking about Female "F"s life.  Female "F" interrupted almost half of the times that female "C" was speaking; female "C" interrupted only a handful of times, usually to ask a relevant question.  Female "F" changed topics unexpectedly, usually by interrupting, without any relation to the current topic.


* Letter codes are not name-based, but grading-based. :)  Distribution might be similar to a Bell Curve, but IME there are many more self-focused female conversationalists than highly effective ones.

 These types of female-female interactions are very common.  So what about a female-male interaction?  With societal norms changing, due to female dominated formative years and "mansplaining" & other degradating terms,  there are a decreasing number of "A" and "B" (and even "C") ability males.  Silence is safer and self-focused chatter is learned by example.

Controversial?  Yes.
That doesn't change reality.
