Abstract.  
This  paper  explores  differences  between  male  and  female  writing  in  a  large  subset  of  the
British  National  Corpus  covering  a  range  of  genres.  Several  classes  of  simple  lexical  and
syntactic  features  that  differ  substantially  according  to  author  gender  are  identified,  both  in
fiction  and  in  non-fiction  documents.  In  particular,  we  find  significant  differences  between
male-  and  female-authored  documents  in  the  use  of  pronouns  and  certain  types  of  noun
modifiers:  although  the  total  number  of  nominals  used  by  male  and  female  authors  is  virtually
identical,  females  use  many  more  pronouns  and  males  use  many  more  noun  specifiers.  More
generally ,  it  is  found  that  even  in  formal  writing,  female  writing  exhibits  greater  usage  of
features  identified  by  previous  researchers  as  "involved"  while  male  writing  exhibits  greater
usage  of  features  which  have  been  identified  as  "informational".   Finally,  a  strong correlation
between  the  characteristics  of  male  (female)  writing  and  those  of  nonfiction  (fiction)  is
demonstrated.
