Men and Women Statistically Equal Chatterers

In spite of the pervasive -- though unsubstantiated -- claim that women utter a whopping 20,000 words per day to men's measly 7,000, new research from the University of Arizona finds that the gap between men's and women's speaking patterns is "statistically insignificant."

According to the research, women speak 16,215 words per day, while men speak 15,669, on average. It's also interesting to note that of the 396 study participants, the least talkative individual (speaking just over 500 words per day) and the most talkative (with 45,000 words per day) were both men.

>> Now that you know who's talking (everyone), the next step is to give them something to say about you.
