Hmm let us see are these spoken, written, heard, or internally thought
words?  Since there are approximately 75ks/day that would be about a word
every 4s.  Are these completely different words or do repeated words count?
I think one can disprove this with a little simple arithmetic.

In either case this sounds like anti male rhetoric of the worst kind.  When
giving vocabulary tests in HS this should result in women being so far ahead
of men that most men would fail miserably.

One wonders if people really consider simple math and common sense when
making these statements.
