Armstrong, C. (1996). One person’s opinion: Deborah Tannen comes to class: Implications of gender and conversation in the classroom. English Journal, 85(2), 15.
In a conversation with a male student, Armstrong thought she was being helpful and supportive when she nodded vigorously and punctuated his words with yes. The male thought she was rude and intrusive. Concerned at the failure of the conversation, Armstrong read Deborah Tanner’s You Just Don’t Understand, which helped Armstrong understand the ways men and women interrupt each other. Men see interruptions as conversational bullying. Women see them as cooperative overlapping. What Armstrong thought was support and involvement the male student saw as manipulation.
Gergen, M. (2001, June 6). [Review of the book Talking difference: On gender and language, by M. Crawford]. Archives of Sexual Behavior, 30(3), 338-340. http://dx.doi.org/10.1023/A:1002716601322
In her review of Crawford’s book, Gergen suggests that the “differences between the ways men and women talk suggest that we might as well have come from different planets” (p. 339). Today, some view it as necessary to take a quick course in conversational translations. Gergen says Crawford made in-depth inquiries into issues of how conversation affects relations, power, and discrimination.
