The strategies that are used by men are strategy 2 : give association clues, strategy 5 : overstate, strategy 1 : give hints I strategy 2 : give association clues, and strategy 4 : understate. On the contrary the strategies that are used by women on her politeness strategy are strategy 4 : understate, strategy 5 : overstate / strategy 1 : give hints, strategy 4 : understate, and strategy 2 : give association dues. 2. The underlying reasons of a man in giving advises are that man tends to act more logically (cognitive factor), associatively, and directly. While a woman tends to use her feeling more (affective factor), emphatically, and indirectly in giving advises. From the data, the writer concluded that as a part of Eastern people, Indonesian separated from the culture and also from cognitive and affective factors. The differences between man and woman in giving advises are not so great because in giving advises, they still honour the existence of human beings especially to their human rights. The writer believes that this study is far from being perfect, so it is suggested that the future researchers who deal with Sociolinguistics and especially in the topic of language, gender, and politeness, should include a wider scope either on the subjects or the area of analysis. In addition, the writer would like to suggest the English Department of Widya Mandala Catholic University to provide more Sociolinguistics books in order to make the future researchers can conduct further studies more easily.
