A lot of language and gender theories address the way men and women talk to each other. Can anyone link me to theories regarding women talking to each other? Thank you.

What a genuine theory does is make testable predictions. Feminist "theories" are not really theories at all, because they make no testable predictions. A more accurate name would be feminist assertions.
