Are there distinctly male and female words or expressions in English?

[Angelbabylips]

There are some words that are traditionally used by straight females and straight males, although not exclusively. Examples: Both say they have to pee, urinate, or use number 1. Females sometimes use the word "tinkle" whereas males will say "piss." Females say something is absolutely gorgeous or cute, whereas males will say that it is pretty and they might say cute. Sometimes it is regional. In the USA South, women call another woman "honey" or "darling." Older men will do the same thing when referring to a woman. This is just my observations on the English Language, with exceptions. What do you think? Can you think of any other male or female expressions? This is a lot of information, but is fascinating to me.

Vocabulary reflects social class and education rather than gender but perhaps one example where men and women differ is with colour.

Men stick to the rainbow colours, red orange green blue... regardless of shade and hue

But women would use scarlet, crimson, ruby etc

I think there are words that only straight males would use to describe a woman's appearance, or a woman's body parts. Although maybe I'm wrong.

I think only a straight male would say, "Wow, look at those gazongas!" if he saw a large-breasted woman.

I think only a straight male would refer to a woman's vagina as her "holiest of holies."

Although, again, maybe I'm wrong.

@Angelbabylips Thanks for the MHO.

I don't think i've ever heard a woman say "🍆s out for Harambe". So i'd assume that a strictly guy expression.

I've also never heard a woman say "rock out with my 🐓 out". Or "hang out with my wang out". But i have heard a woman say, "jam out with my clam out". So depending how it's worded that expression may be gender specific.

girls to girls... I love you girl

guys to guys... haa, you suck...

[Angelbabylips]

@NathanDavis good example.

[NathanDavis]

lol... it happens

[Angelbabylips]

Everyday somewhere. LOL!

[ArrowheadSW]

It would be feminine to say, "How sweet of you".

[strateguy632]

good example. straight men don't say 'absolutely gorgeous '. but everyone else does.

[Billlewis]

I think there are a few. To me, the dumbest 'guy' words/terms are 'man cave' and 'stoked'. For women, I think 'gaslighting' is absurd.

[SamIam96]

I can't imagine a woman greeting someone by saying "yo!"

[bowenw]

"How's it hanging?"
This is usually said by guys to each other, but I have had the occasional woman ask.

[canamlusciouslad73]

Sure. Don't think many women say,"You've gotta be a boy to be a cowboy !!!"

I like it that both sexes say they have to pee

[Iron_Man]

We say take a leak

[Ellieeexo]

We also say 'wee' for pee in UK

[MrChinaski]

'Panties' come to my mind, frequently.

[KostasKouvalis]

Not really. The English language is gender neutral
