Females
A female will usually use an average of 20,000 words per day.
An average male will use 7,000.
Also a female's brain activity becomes very high when hearing her own voice. This high is very similar to a cocaine addict's brain activity right after snorting cocaine.
No wonder they won't shut the f*ck up. It's a free high for them when they babble away their wasted and worthless lives!

Re: Females
I`m sure I use less than 7000 words in a day. I feel my brain is decaying faster than my teeth.

Over the last 15 years, a series of books and articles have told us that women talk a lot more than men do. According to Dr. Scott Halzman in Psychology Today, women use about 7,000 words a day, and men use about 2,000. On the other hand, Ruth E. Masters, in her book ``Counseling Criminal Justice Offenders," tells us that ``Females use an estimated 25,000 words per day and males use an estimated 12,000 words per day." And according to James Dobson's book ``Love for a Lifetime," ``research tells us" that God gives a woman 50,000 words a day, while her husband only gets 25,000.
A bit of Googling easily turns up at least nine different versions of this claim, ranging from 50,000 vs. 25,000 down to 5,000 vs. 2,500. But a bit of deeper research reveals that none of the authors of these claims actually seems to have counted, and none cites anyone who seems to have counted either.
The most recent to join the chorus is Dr. Louann Brizendine, clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco. In her current best-seller, ``The Female Brain" (Morgan Road), Brizendine tells us that ``A woman uses about 20,000 words per day while a man uses about 7,000."
[...]
The book's endnotes appear to attribute the numbers to a 1997 self-help book by Allan Pease and Allan Garner, ``Talk Language: How to Use Conversation for Profit and Pleasure." But Pease himself has presented several different word count numbers in other sources. In 2000, he published ``Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps" (with Barbara Pease), which attributes to women ``6,000-8,000 words," while men get ``just 2,000-4,000 words." (They also offer daily counts for women's and men's ``vocal sounds" and ``facial expressions, head movements, and other body language signals"-but don't provide a source for any of the counts.) In a 2004 CNN interview, Allan Pease said that ``women can speak 20,000 to 24,000 words a day versus a man's top end of 7,000 to 10,000."

Re: Females
As soon as us guys start adding 'like, you know.' into everything we say we'll soon like, you know, get our word count up.
The truth is that men can communicate volumes using just one word.
Example - For a girl to organise a night out she needs to make phone calls to inform location, what she's wearing, who else is coming and any preliminary gossip she deems important.
For guys - RING< RING< "Beer?"
I rest my case, like, you know.

We could go along the ' I see you've stopped actually writing sentences and just placed a summary of your post instead' or the ' Which mod edited this then?' to the ' No change here from your usual posts then?' etc etc.
Go ahead, think one up, it's not difficult.

It was a simple comment of what most women talk about using all those words each day. Most of the time when I am listening to my wife it's just drivel.
Besides I was going for the comedy effect. Irritating that it did not work.
