I do think that men and women use languages differently in many ways. Woman talk, explain and describe using their words in abundance, where as men will use as little of their words as possible to “cut to the chase” and get right to what they want or need. Women love to discuss and men just want the answer short and sweet. Women need verbal stimulation where as men require very little of it in my opinion. This is what I have experienced in my my own life and have observed through time.
I have an example if you ask a man how his work day was and usually the answer is short, to the point and with not much detail. Ask a woman about the same things and she will tell you from beginning to end, plus what everyone had for lunch and what everyone was wearing in the room!
I thoroughly enjoyed your example, as it is so true. Men are not talkers like women. It seems that there are so many interesting things that occur in a day, it is difficult to narrow it down to a one sentence summary. My husband has learned that when I come home from work we need at least thirty minutes of sit down and talk time. I find it relaxing, to review and unwind from my day. I don't necessarily need him to respond or try and solve any of the problems I had during my day. I just want him to listen, while I talk. It is weird to me when he decides its his day to talk about his work day, but I listen because he always gives me that respect.
