• The article Do women and men speak a different language? Gender-specific differences in word-choice and syntax in two lifestyle magazines: Brigitte und Men's Health aims to pinpoint gender-specific differences in the linguistic behaviour of men and women and to determine whether the above-mentioned magazines indeed feature male and female language. The subject is approached from the following perspectives: we begin by analysing the general linguistic features of the articles in the light of female and male specificity, then we trace the way in which the same subject was edited with a different word-choice, only to conclude by filtering out common linguistic tendencies. The analysed corpus includes the first issues of both publications from 2014, 2015 and 2016. Only those categories were selected that offered similar content to both target audiences, even though their title might not be identical.
