Abstract
In a study of dyadic conversations between four female and four male pairs of friends, the use of the phrase you know and questions are exam- ined within three types of discourse. Women and men are found to use these features with equal frequency; and all speakers, regardless of sex or gender, use them in comparable ways. Although these particular dis- course features have been previously associated with a female speech style, the results of this study show that it is the particular requirements associated with the three types of talk that motivate their use, and not the sex or gender of the individual speaker. The problems of generalizing about the characteristics of female or male speech, outside of a partic- ular conversational context, are discussed; and it is shown that a gen- dered style cannot be adequately defined by counting individual speech variables removed from the specifics of the talk context.
