This is interesting but I disagree with a lot of it.

How many times have you read an email or text and felt an instant heated wave of irritation? Or felt hurt? Or disregarded? These are familiar experiences for us all.

I can't actually ever remember feeling hurt/disregarded from reading an email or text. I've felt irritated, but that's because the content is irritating ("the toilet is clogged again") - hearing it over a phone call wouldn't help.

“Can you pick up milk and cookies? I forgot when I was out earlier. Glad you’ll be here soon.”

If you get all upset over something this innocuous, seems like the problem is you, not the person who is texting. Like I don't think most people are going to be this thin-skinned.

And you cannot tell me that it isn't more personal hearing someone's voice than it is seeing words they type.

It's pretty much the same to me. I don't really get anything more from hearing words than I do from reading them.
