Emotional being... More to the Story!
Isn't it funny how when one gets something in his or her head, one is more likely to see the world applying to or directing you to that path or train of thought.
Just a few days after my last post "Emotional being...", I came across the most intersting television show on CBC. Now, the fact is that I don't have cable. I grew up fine with little eye damge from wathcing perfectly lovely, but fuzzy, TV. I actually feel get better shows than what people 'settle for' when surfing for something interesting on cable. I also find cable very expensive, but this is another tangent for another day, so I digress.
The show?... yes, the show! I stumbled across it and want to watch the rest of the series, titled WAR OF THE SEXES
EPISODE 3: EMOTION
Sunday March 26
While it's clear that men and women aren't the same when it comes to expressing their emotions, we're still a long way from understanding why. And the stakes couldn't be higher; more marriages fail than ever before due to what some experts call an "emotional gap" between the sexes. Researchers have found that men and women use their brains in fundamentally different ways as they feel, receive and decode emotions. To see how these differences play out, three men and three women participate in an acting and improvisation workshop where their emotions are front and centre.
In watching this comparison between the genders, discussing stereo types, inherited traits, and learned strategies for
dealing with people and processes, I started to examine my own emotions and reactions much more closely. For exmaple, this blogger just wiped out half of my post, and I had to do it all over again, so now I have somehow missed including an entire paragraph, thus an entire thought I had in here before. I have no control over it; cannot get it back; so I resign myself to continue with my day in an attempt to not be mean to anyone but the blogger - As I was saying, before I was so rudely interupted by my blogger system... I found that as a child I mimicked both the female and male memebers of my clan. this could explain why sometimes, when making decisions, or in social settings, I feel myself reacting differently, more femine or more masculine, in the strictly typical terms.
Perhaps it was the farm upbringing?
