article paragraph

Depending on how you connect with people changes hw you may view your siblings. If you are more of an emotional speaker, studies show that having sisters can benifit that side of a person. According to an article by Deborah Tannen on the new york times website,

 "Most [women] said they talked to their sisters more often, at greater length and, yes, about more  personal topics. this often meant that they felt closer to their sisters, but not always.

       One woman for example, says she talks for hours by phone to her two brothers as well as her two sisters. But the topics differ. She talks to her sisters about their personal lives; with her brothers she dicusses history, and geography books. and, she added, one brother calls her at 5 a.m. as a prank.

      A prank? Is this communication? well, yes - it reminds her that he's thinking of her. and talking for hours creates and reinforces connections with both brothers and sisters, regardless of what they talk about."

(Para 10-12)

 which also means that it works the other way around too.
