Language is the most important communication tool for human beings. It not only reflects the reality of the society, but also has various functions to strengthen and maintain social existence. Given such a view, language does mirror the gendered perspectives and can also impact and contribute to changing people's perception of gender over time. Thus, for a long time feminists and sociologists have shown interest in describing the differences in language use between women and men, and studies of the cultural roles ascribed to gender. However, interest in language usage differences between the two sexes has a very long tradition in attempting to explain the distinction between language and gender and how language supports, enforces, and maintains attitudes about gender in general and women in particular.
This paper attempts to discuss the following points: (1) a brief overview of key sociolinguistic approaches; (2) some important issues on the relationship between gender and language; (3) some explanations on the differences between male and female speech such as: power in gender relationships, community practice, conversational styles and strategies, attitudes and prestige, and discrimination and sexist language practices; and (4) the implications for language planning.
