Because they're alien species, the methods of communication that men and women use are different. A typical conversation might start something like this:
She: Why don't you ever listen to me?
He: What's that, darling?

Women like to gossip about things that men may consider trivial miniature, but which to women are basic life issues. Things like shopping, how much food costs, what is currently seasonal and how un-busy they've been today. Men like talking about football, their latest sexual conquests and how much territory they've got. But that's only when men do talk.

For the most part, they'd far rather be out doing things. When men talk, they are straightforward and literal. They are hopeless at hidden agendas, subtle innuendo or barbed ironic remarks. Women however, have mastery of subtle and indirect communication, and creative exaggeration. Women can also use pointed silences very effectively, though these are abit wasted on men.

Listening skills are essential to relationships, and here too men and women have differing abilities. Women listen to what's being said only when they are being stroked, cuddled or otherwise appreciated. Men only listen when their name is spoken. What they hear is a series of blurred mumblings, interspersed with occasional clear mentions of their name. Take Denise and Spot, for instance - a couple who came to me for counselling because they were experiencing communication difficulties. I told Denise that if she wants Spot to concentrate on what she is saying, she should insert his name into every sentence. For instance, she could say something like this:
"Spot! Are you listening to me, Spot? Good, Spot. Now, Spot, I'm going to say something very important. (Insert important message here), Spot. Okay, Spot?"

Better still, she could find ways of cunningly working his name into her message, while referring to somehting else. For instance, she could say:
"I've just spotted a man who's much more better-looking than you."
"I've got a spot on my nose. Would you sqeeze it for me?"

And now for the guys. Instead of listening skills, you have to develop other techniques that will make up. A useful ploy is to appear to be listening very carefully to what your girlfriend is saying, when you've completely blanked out. Fix your gaze steadily on her, pointing your ears towards her. That way she will really feel heard.


Here are some things a man should never say to a woman:
I don't care.
It's all your fault.
You're wrong.
You won't understand.

Here are some things a woman should never say to a man:
Nothing. Women can say whatever they want to men.

Homeostasis

After a meal that consists mainly of carbohydrates, the glucose level in the blood will rise. When the glucose level gets higher than normal, the pancreas will secrete insulin. The insulin is transported by blood to the liver, where it causes the liver to convert the excess glucose to glycogen to be stored. The glucose level returns to norm.
When the glucose level in the blood drops below norm during vigorous exercise, the pancreas then secretes glucagon, which causes the liver to convert stored glycogen back to glucose. The glucose level returns to norm.

When the water potential in blood rises above norm due to large intake of water, less ADH will be secreted. This causes the kidney tubules to reabsorb less water, causing more dilute urine. Water potential returns to norm.
When the water potential in blood drops below norm during dehydration, more ADH is produced. This causes the kidney tubules to reabsorb more water, so less concentrated urine is produced. Water potential in blood returns to norm.

On a hot day, the blood temperature is higher than norm. Temperature receptors in the nerve cells pick up heat signals to send to the brain, which in turn sends signals to other body parts. The arterioles in skin dilate, causing more blood to flow through. Sweat glands produce more sweat that evaporates and cools body down. Hair erector muscles relax, causing hairs on skin to smooth down. Metabolic rate decreases, resulting in a decrease of heat production. Blood temperature returns to norm.
On a cold day, the blood temperature is lower than norm. Temperature receptors in skin picks up cold signals to send to brain, which in turn sends signals to various body parts. The arterioles in skin contract, letting less blood flow through them. Sweat glands close up, releasing little sweat. Hair erector muscles contract, causing hairs to 'stand up' and trap a layer of air above the skin, thus retaining heat. Metabolic rate increases, resulting in an increase in heat production. Blood temperature returns to norm.

argh...was all dat correct?...my homeostasis sux...bleah...

Dick's madness...

point:Mary (indirect cause)
-Dick did not think of himself as a failure at first, for he was self-sufficient and "would not get into debt any more than he could". He also had an immovable pride that earned him some respect in the district.
-Then Mary came along...
-Mary alot more capable than Dick. She could "see so clearly what was wrong" with the farm, just by looking at Dick's farm books.
-Tried to get Dick to understand what was wrong with the farm, but Dick's pride made him act stubborn and not accept Mary's suggestions.
-After that, Mary did not help him anymore, she felt there was no way Dick would listen to her and he would turn defensive. Yet she did not realize that "she was Dick's failure" all along.
-Dick interpreted her wrongly and thought that she was too stuck up to help him, even though he knew within that he would not listen to her anyway.
-Dick decided to grow tabacco to please Mary.
-When the drought came, the crops died. Dick was relieved because the failure was not through any fault of his own, but the weather, and it was "sheer bad luck that could have happened to anyone".
-Maryz constant disapproval of Dick's sudden ventures like pigs and bees, which always turns out as failures, made Dick realize his faults.
-Due to Mary, Dick finds himself imcompetent and impractical,always making rash decisions and getting into debt. He also realizes his reasoning is not sensible and the plain fact that Mary was better than him makes him feel worse.

point:Charlie & farm(main cause)
-Charlie has been eyeing(?) Dick's land fer a long time, "it was the grazing he wanted". Charlie had large herds of cattle but no land for them, while Dick's farm had fertile soils and unfarmed land.
-Charlie saw Mary's relationship with Moses, hiz esprit de corp made him alert and he asked Dick to "get rid of him[Moses]".
-Dick was resentful towards Charlie, for "bringing to his attention something he'd rather not think about"(not so sure bout dis quote...). But Dick cannot sack Moses, for "Mary likes him[Moses]" and thus would not let go of him easily.
-Dick's facing up to this fact that he was nothing compared to Moses in Mary's eyes made him feel worthless. He felt doubly bad because Moses was a black man yet he, a white man, could not keep his own wife away from the houseboy. It turned out to be Dick's personal failure in not being able to control his wife.
-Charlie offered to buy Dick's farm and in the end succeeded.
-Dick thus lost farm, and as the farm meant alot to him and he "considered himself a part of it", he felt that he had lost his meaning to life. This is the main cause of his madness.

point:Marriage (indirect & eventual cause)
-Dick and Mary's marriage had not worked out right from the beginning. They did not share their thoughts and feelings with each other, therefore they were like strangers and misunderstandings were common.
-Dick married because he wanted a wife and children to brighten up the house. He went to the cinema and saw Mary's silouette(?), thus creating an ideal image of his wife. Ironically Mary did not fit into this image.
-Dick tried to fit Mary into the ideal image and shape her into what he wanted her to be, but failed. Therefore, he decided to live with Mary as she is, and eventually grew to love her.
-Mary however, did not love Dick. She felt that she was "bestowing herself upon this stranger"(another not-so-sure quote...) and their relationship was thus a superficial one.
-Both also did not confide their problems to each other, and thus they accumulate and eventually leads to thier end.
-When Mary succumbed to Moses, Dick felt that he had lost to Moses in a way that he had lost his wife to another person, particularly a black. His pride and self-esteem was greatly lowered.
-Mary's death was the ultimate breaking-point for Dick. Though he hardly understood her, he loved her and his loss of her together with his beloved farm drove him to eventual madness.
