i consult on human behavior when i'm bored or want a new toy. especially gender issues in the workplace for corporate clients. im considered top 3 nationally.

human behavior is 95% predictable and falls neatly around lines of gender.

what i find interesting in your comments and posts though, is almost a pathological need to be accepted and seen as some uber ally to people promoting gender primacy, against your own interests (theoretically). when i see that in public, i dig very deep for the hidden agenda, and generally speaking with men its about intimacy. its where white knights and the "nice Guy" is born from, a need for intimacy from the opposite sex that cant be fulfilled by the needy persons real personality.....so they adopt one.

fascinating.
