Abstract

The difference of power relations caused by gender difference is a very common phenomenon in society, which has a profound impact on the way of communication between the two sexes in daily life and the harmony and unity of society.Since 1997, several Chinese academics have studied this subject in great detail; however, their study has not yet produced a cohesive theory explaining the particular gender concerns that arise in everyday conversations. Thus, this study gathers the entire corpus of three groups of research objects and examines their various power relations under particular gender issues using the conversational research analysis approach.. Finally, it is found that the research subjects will develop variables during the study, that is, they are driven by interest and influenced by the demands that women want to express, which can analyze the differences in power relations, and then achieve the purpose of amicable communication between the sexes.
