The document discusses differences in language use between men and women in several areas: minimal response, question asking, turn-taking, changing topics, self-disclosure, verbal aggression, and politeness. Women tend to provide more minimal responses like "mhmm" in conversations. They also ask more questions and are more likely to take turns in discussions. Men typically change topics less and focus more on their own points. Self-disclosure and expressions of emotions also differ between genders.
