I thought for sure the title was taken from a pop-psychology book ;-)
Of course, I would replace the word 'women' with 'extroverts' and 'men' with 'introverts'.
There are chatty charlies as well as chatty cathys.

Tomatillo Husk

Comment:
I love tomatillo husks - nice interpretation here. Did you process this after the challenge was over? It has a lot of possibility. Don't worry about the sharpness comment. DPC has a sharpness fetish and macros usually need to be ~f/22 :P The allure of your image is its waving in and out like a vertiginous stairwell. FWIW you can sharpen more than once in minimal editing, should you choose to.
