The More Talkative Gender

I have never understood why women are

Labeled as talkative, men in my experience by far

Outdo women in talking in every place

Mansplain everything, take up as much space

As they can in every discussion, especially when women are involved

Over thousands of years society has evolved

In such a way that women listen while men speak their minds

Women, if they do the same, often find

Themselves in trouble, they learn to choose

Their words and tone carefully before they let loose

The thoughts in their minds for people to hear

Being judged for their words they fear

Much more than men do, and yet wisecracks abound

On how women talk nonstop in their high-pitched sounds…

*

Yes women talk, to share their lives

Through their connection with others they thrive

Women talk to each other, knowing that men

Are probably too full of their egos to listen..
