What final sentence particle can replace の and is used more commonly by men?


の has a female connotation and I wanted to obtain some alternative final
sentence particles.




Colloquial language in females is sometimes characterized by dropping the
sentence-final だ altogether to sound less forceful/direct. So the equivalent
sentence-end for colloquial male language would be のだ, which regularly (almost
always) contracts to んだ in casual contexts.
