How do men and women act and react differently ...
How do men and women act and react differently in dating? Even before it gets to the dating stage, how do the two genders show or not show that they like each other? What about when they don't like each other? What about when they're not sure and they're just testing the waters? What different strategies does each employ when playing the many games of love? Is all this biological? Or is it more based on culture and society? Can we really make clear-cut distinctions between how men and women will act? And if so, where can and can't we?_x000D_

Love games and dating are complicated, and yet, engrained in the ways we interact, even from childhood and going all the way back to caveman times. So now that we live in a society with so many choices and where we talk about everything, has it become less or more complicated? Probably more complicated actually. So let's have a fun, open-minded, and incredibly important discussion based in psychology, sociology and our own real-life experiences (or the lack thereof). _x000D_

在约会中,男人和女人的行为和反应有什么不同?甚至在进入约会阶段之前,两性是如何表现出或不表现出他们喜欢对方的呢?如果他们不喜欢对方怎么办?如果他们不确定,只是在试水怎么办?在玩许多爱情游戏时,每个人都采用了什么不同的策略?这一切都是生理上的吗?还是基于文化和社会?我们真的能明确区分男性和女性的行为方式吗?如果是这样,哪些是可以的,哪些不可以?_x000D_

爱情游戏和约会是复杂的,它在我们互动的方式中根深蒂固,甚至从童年一直追溯到穴居人时代。那么,现在我们生活在一个有这么多选择的社会,我们谈论一切,是变得更简单还是更复杂?实际上可能更复杂。因此,让我们基于心理学、社会学和我们自己的现实生活经验(或缺乏现实生活经验也没关系)进行一次有趣、开放、非常重要的讨论。
