Research has actually proved why women talk more than men. You'll never guess why.

It's not just because women are more emotional or like to talk. No, they now actually have a scientific reason!

There's a protein that both men and women produce in their brains. It's called 'FOXP2'. Now, women produce about three times the amount than men.

Let's look at the numbers.

Women on average say about twenty thousand words a day.

Men say about seven thousand. Which is about 1/3 of what women say.

Women have three times the protein which equates to three times the amount of words being spoken. Pretty cool!
