The book Gender Aggression in Political Debates explores how gender influences the expression and perception of aggression in televised political debates. It examines the role of gender in shaping communicative behaviors, with a focus on how male and female politicians use aggression as a tool for asserting authority, challenging opponents and influencing public opinion. The study reveals distinct patterns in verbal, non-verbal and paralinguistic forms of aggression, showing how both genders employ different strategies in these high-stakes debates. Men tend to use more direct, hostile aggression, while women often engage in relational and manipulative tactics, navigating gender stereotypes to assert power. The research also explores how linguistic features, such as metaphors and rhetorical devices, vary by gender. Additionally, non-verbal cues, including facial expressions and body language, play a significant role in reinforcing aggressive messages. The study contributes to understanding the intersection of gender, language, and power in political discourse, offering insights into how these dynamics shape public perception and influence political outcomes.
