Is there really something in the genetic make-up of the female which make them talk almost non-stop....consistantly? I am asking because, I took my 5 year old grandaughter on a short walk today. Not once did she quit talking, other than to gasp for air! I am assuming that this is not nurture, therefore it must be nature. Unless you know otherwise?

Children are very inquisitive , so they do ask a lot of questions. - it is only natural.

@TheRamblingMan Great topic! Yes, it starts very young! I worked with pre-school aged children for years and I also raised a son and daughter. When toddlers as young as 2 are playing/pretending, the girls usually use language twice as much as boys. Boys tend to make more noises instead of words: like car sounds, animal sounds, etc.

@BloggerDi That's interesting. As for the boy's sounds, I guess that never changes throughout life! lol

Uh-uh - you are on dodgy ground here - there are more females on this site than males!. And I don't think you can generalise like that, for instance my husband talks far more than I do

I guess yeah.. girls tend to talk more than boys.. I don't know the reason why.. And I have a cousin who talks non-stop and we play a game with her "who can stay quiet for a long time" it totally works .
