This would have most likely angered the woman and she would begin to argue with him. For example, she uses words and phrases such as discuss, or call attention to, which are synonyms for induce. She dedicates this chapter to show how argument is not always the best way to get a message across to people, yet she is disputing to her readers that arguing is evil. She is somewhat of a hypocrite. Tannen presents her position well on her focus of how society has turned into a black abyss of arguing.
Arguments depend on the person.
Some people jump at every statement while others are laid back and take things as they come. Not everyone s tactics are the same, and this creates a diverse world with numerous types of people and different forms of arguments. What one perceives as a dispute others may see it as a mere remark. With many different opinions there will always be a controversy of some form.
