I'm well aware of the phenomenon but it is not the kind of interruption I'm talking about.

To be clear, I'm talking about men-interrupting-men-and-women-because-they-are-interrupters vs women-interrupting-men-and-women-because-they-are-interrupters, and not men-interrupting-women-because-they-are-sexist. The context of the article is the former, clearly.

Also, I don't consider "is there any reason to think" to be confrontational.

Men interrupt men more than women do.

Men interrupt women more than women do.

Men interrupt more than women.
