Of course, what this shows is that humans are consistently uncharitable in reading gendered differences in communication and whether women or men are considered more problematic depends very much on the zeitgeist.

I took EC’s tweet as lamenting the fact that philosophy students would talk about philosophy, rather than talk about themselves

Actual discussion of subject is "BLAH BLAH"?
In my experience both male, female and trans can do "BLAH BLAH", but tend to make different uses of social media.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I think the tweet accidentally demonstrates (or maybe is commenting on) gender typical differences in how males and females communicate regardless of intelligence ;)

That’s one of the central problems I have with the conduct of certain ideological tribes: a marked tendency to react to perceived sexism (for example) with further sexism (re *both* sexes).

That kind of blanket attribution of supposedly immutable characteristics to certain genders regardless of the individuals concerned is very sexist
