"Online communities that are predominantly composed of younger female users have developed dialects that sound more intimate, warm, and amenable" (Jeong & Lee, 2018). It will always amaze me that when women get together, we find ways to express closeness and emotions that favor community-bonding, whereas men get together and do everything possible with their language to disparage, hurt, and push away even other men. Miserable existences.
