In addition to all of the things we must learn when we transition, there are some things we must unlearn. It's common for men to greet each other with a head nod, while women often smile at each other as they pass -- women don't use the 'head nod' as a greeting.
You may also notice that the 'head nod' has two major variations. I've noticed one group of males which always nods 'down', and another group which nods 'up'. If you nod using both techniques, I would classify you as bilingual, or should that be 'binodual'?
Women do seem to talk more, while males tend to be more non-verbal. Men also rarely speak in a public restroom, while women will often start a conversation when they enter, continue the conversation as they do their business, and only say 'goodbye' after leaving the restroom.
There is a lot to learn!
