I thought it was interesting on men and women will communicate differently. Men will just interrupt each other and just talk louder when the other male gets the point across. Women wont do as much interrupting and will apologize when they do. I never noticed that until we got in those groups. I also thought it was interesting when we changed the groups from all men in one group and all women in another, to half and half how everyone got louder. Since then I have tried to notice that when people are just talking. It seems that men will do a lot more talking that women. It just shows how men are socialized differently that women, men are taught to speak up and don't be a "wussy" and women are more reserved. If a woman does speak up and talk, men think that she talks too much when in fact men talk way more than women.

I had the same experience as you as far as the groups in class... I hadn't realized how differently men and women communicate until I saw it for myself in class.
