- listen carefully and attentively for a long period without interrupting.
- Men tend to give a quick "thanks" while women say "thank you" in an extended sweet manor which much inflection.
- Men say "So" or "Go". Many women say "Seo" or "Geo". The "e" being pronounced like the "e" in the word "set". Men say "what" women say "wet".
- Some women tend to accentuate the letter "S" every chance they can get which is where I believe the term swishy came from. They pronounce their Ts more distinctly then men. Sometimes men don't pronounce the "T" at all
- Men in general have a more relaxed enunciation where as women tend enunciate every consonant and vowel.
- Men's voices come from lower in the larynx than a woman's which most full timers modify to give a more realistic woman's voice.
