Does My Husband Recognize Me?

I've just completed my first week in "Reading in Gender Communications." I like this class, even though I wasn't sure I would.

The content is challenging to read, but very good. The two authors I've read so far, Van Leeuwen and Kramarea (who insidentally, made up her own last name) have been fascinating. I don't quite know what to make of what I've read, but I'm glad for the exposure.

Conversations with my husband are interesting these days. :) Poor guy! I'm reading all of this material on gender communication, plus I'm just finishing the class where we've focused on interpersonal communication. He probably doesn't know what to make of me right now!

I've been trying all kinds of things out--really without meaning too. I've just been remembering things I'm learning as we talk. So far, I think it is good. Hopefully he does too. Perhaps we need some "metacommunication" to find out what he thinks. I'm kind of afraid to ask.
