Episode 1 #TheFamily. Besides, the writer employed a qualitative approach using Holmes’ (2006) theory on feminine interactional styles and masculine interactional styles.Moreover, the writer collected all utterances of Lucinta Luna in her interaction with the host and the participants. The analysis presented Lucinta utilized both feminine and masculine interactional styles, but she used more feminine interactional styles. Nonetheless, she did not use one feature of masculine interactional style at all, which is aggressive interruptions. She used more feminine language, which was related to her gender as a trans woman.
