A few days ago, a friend happened to gift me Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus, and while I still haven't had the time to go through the book,u00a0the title got me thinking, Are we actually so different, so as to be considered from different, so as to be considered from different planets? Indeed, my reflection did give me the extent of difference between the genders (behavioural ones, not the obvious biological ones), and my own viewpoint on the battle of the sexes.
For one, considering marriage, from what I gather from my interaction with friends is that the main motive behind women willing to tie the knot is to have someone bare their heart to, or to be more precise, a set of ears to listen to them. On the other hand, the main motive behind men wanting to get married is to have a regular physical partner, and they not having to go through the trouble of actually talking to a girl, to get intimate with her. Does seem a point of possible contention, isn't it?
