Sherman and Adelaide Haas in “Man to Man, Woman to Woman”, husbands and wives often have communication issues. That is why men and women talk about different topics. Base on some questions asked to different couple, men and women can rarely talk about the same topics like television, work and movies, but women will react more emotional than men. Then making fun of the other person opinion could easy lead to argument or fights. Men enjoy talking to other man because they don’t have to watch what they are saying and because freedom, playfulness and camaraderie.
She also admits that boys and girls do have many differences, which cause them to behave differently. Orenstein observed that in many situations the teacher ignored the girls when they raised their hands while the boys would blurt-out answers without the teacher scolding them for it. The boys, she observed, usually dominated the classroom discussions while the girls would be very hesitant to raise their own hands for fear of having the wrong answer. Many of the girls Orenstein interviewed said that boys do not care if they are wrong
For instance, in math class, girls do not seem to talk less than boys. The teacher preferred to ask girls some calculating questions, as he believed that girls are quicker and more carefully at calculating than boys. But when it comes to some challenging problems in science classes, the boys, on the other hand, tend to doubt what

The uneasiness the “n-word” creates in class is important because it causes teachers and students to face the word and discuss their feelings about it, which is an important conversation. Ignoring the word or choosing not to read it because it is offensive and people are too uncomfortable to read it gives the word more power. To take away this power, we must acknowledge the word which degrades its offensiveness and helps people deal with it. “The understandable discomfort the word “nigger” causes students and teachers is a part of a conversation; part of the point of reading that book in school is to have
Students need structure. Structure in the classroom will cause self motivation in students. Also, students don't like being held accountable for their actions. Having to talk to students about why they didn't finish their assignments will motivate them to do their work. Most students try to avoid being lectured or get in trouble for something they can avoid.
For example: ”Um, study more, I guess.” My intonation also gets higher at the end of my sentences when answering a question given to me by a teacher to make it sound like a question rather than a statement, followed by shrugging my shoulders. This is because I get nervous when two figures of authority are looking at me expectantly for a response and I don’t want to seem imbecilic. Another reason for this could be because teachers seem to be more intimidating or have more of an influence in front of my parents, since what they say at that point in time is more likely to actually be implemented than at any other occasion. I may also subconsciously think I have done something wrong and my ‘good girl’ reputation may possibly be at stake. In contrast, my speech can be distinguished
Men live their lives as they see it in media and society. They follow the past, but it is gradually changing as women are getting more opportunities and rights today then previous.

Masculinised privilege is also seen in schools with school bullies, which are mostly boys who bully due to their characteristics and title in school they act this way.
You also see men, having the dominance in relationships from time to time, saying that they have the pants in the relationship. Basically, that they hold the say on what happens. It is stated in “The War on Men” that, “So if men today are slackers, and if they’re retreating from marriage on masse, women should look in the mirror and ask themselves what role they’ve played to bring about this transformation.” This shows that, females should stand up for themselves, and change the relationship for the better, that the male shouldn’t have all the dominance. Females should too have a say in this, and show that they have dominance in the relationship as well, since a relationship should be an equal say on both
There is sometimes tension and anxiety in ESL classroom, as the students are required to use a language different from their first language, and the cultural background of two languages are also different. Especially in communicative language classes, when students are ask to speak in an unfamiliar language in front of their peers, there might be anxiety and embarrassment. A reason for such anxiety and embarrassment is that the students are afraid of making mistakes. These leads to uncomfortable feelings which make the students nervous and unwilling to speak. In such cases, laughter can ease tension and create a playful and more enjoyable environment.
