"text": "[W]omen tend to provide and expect more listener feedback such as \"yeah,\" \"mhm,\" and \"uhuh,\" so they often get the mistaken impression that men are not listening when they are, while men often mistake women's signs of listenership for signs of agreement, and feel misled when they later learn that the women did not agree.",
