Are Visuals Helpful?

"I think the word clouds speak for themselves. While 'Sex' and 'Sexy' are among the top words for women, they barely come up for men. Perhaps the biggest irony is that 'Man' is a top word for women. One of the more off-putting insights is that 'Naked,' 'Boobs,' and 'Butt' are all common enough to appear in the wordcloud for women, but I cannot find a single body part word in the wordcloud for men."

"Furthermore, this is not a common practice. Here are wordclouds I generated using the same method for Colbert and Fallon."
