Your comment makes me question my masculinity. I would say the desire to communicate and the feelings expressed were feminine. Noee of the phrases you mentioned did I see as clues to gender.

To be clear I didn't say men never use any of these words individually (except for "spidey senses" I suppose).

Just that their frequent and combined usage in this particular article made me almost hear her voice in my head, including the female cadence and intonation...
