THE LINGUISTIC BEHAVIOUR OF MEN AND WOMEN. GENDER DIFFERENCES IN FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE DISCOURSE

Summary/Abstract: The linguistic behaviour of men and women. Gender differences in freedom of conscience discourse. The study analyses the sociolinguistic differences between men and women in general, with particular focus on the register used to describe freedom of conscience. After a brief theoretical introduction that presents some basic concepts used in the sociolinguistic analysis, the study continues with an analysis of some social media posts pertaining to men and women alike. We tried to identify the differences and create a sociolinguistic profile of the users with reference to style, tone and word choice.
