There was a study done once, and the significance of this study was that it was more astounding for it's results than it was for it's content. It was the only study ever done, where the results were the same for all age groups........ from the age of toddlers up to centenarians. 100%
The excercise was to put two chairs into an empty room. Two males were sent into the room to talk. In ALL cases, in ALL age groups, the males placed the chairs side by side and they proceded to talk. Two females were sent into the room, and in ALL cases, in ALL age groups, the females placed the chairs opposite each other.....and they proceded to talk. (I'm not sure what my point is, but I think it clearly demonstrates that we are genetically disposed to converse in totally different ways.) Opposite ways almost.
