Shocked! That's what I am! Shocked to learn this fact about women!

In fact, women talk almost three times as much as men, with the average woman chalking up 20,000 words in a day - 13,000 more than the average man.

Women also speak more quickly, devote more brainpower to chit-chat - and actually get a buzz out of hearing their own voices, a new book suggests.

So who might not have already known this?

Maybe somebody who had never had a conversation with a woman?

I heard a rumor that the sky is blue as well. But even that is less obvious then the fact that women talk more then men.
