What language barrier?

[Celso Alvarez Cáccamo]

So, female talk and male talk are equally different. They are like 
identical twins: one is more identical than the other, without us knowing 
which one is one and which other is the other one. Men and women are like 
an only twin. In fact, male talk and female talk differ only in one 
syllable, which females have but women don't.

We men speak just like women. And women like men, they do, just like men 
like women. Also, many males prefer mail, and many females prefer femail. 
And only lonely emales prefer a single email.

Sometimes, males and females are difficult to read. Women follow discourse, 
and men follow dat course: they converse the converse converse, each 
subject subject to a subject.

In short: A woman's talk is like a man's TOC. Or vice versa, asrev eciv rO.
