Recently on a video, a woman sarcastically made a comment, that men should try and have a conversation with women and listen like they actually care what they have to say.

I found it kind of funny.

Women talk 20,000 words a day, vs men speaking 7,000 words a day.

If women are talking 3 times as much as men, WHO is doing the talking and WHO is doing the listening?

Also, some might call this a joke:
If A Man Speaks His Mind In A Forest And No Woman Hears Him, Is He Still Wrong?

even if a guy listens only half the time that’s three thousand more words than the woman listens to.

and believe me they read in a whole lot more to the seven thousand words the guy says.

Not in my household. Husband and son do all the talking. I have to be really firm if I want to finish a sentence without hubby interrupting, because he has a horrible habit of that.

WHO is doing the listening?....Certainly NOT me. “ YEAH, YEAH. Shut up and start the lawnmower (or snow-blower depending on equinox juxtaposition).
