In the last post (we feel when we meet the right partner) I said that as a result of evolution we mastered the skill of recognizing a partner with good genes. We don’t even have to think about it. We feel it immediately.
In this post I’d like to examine which emotions are triggered by which behavior. I only observe men’s behavior and women’s feelings.
Genes Are the Blueprint
It’s a long time ago when I learned about evolution and genes in school. I learned it and I found it exciting. But I never thought I could use this knowledge to understand women.
Our genes are the blueprint of a human being. The genes are responsible for the looks, the figure and the behavior. (Ok, some part of the behavior comes from education and social programming. I’m not talking about that for now.) A human being is basically the surviving machine for its genes. (Read “The selfish gene” by Richard Dawkins if you’re interested.)
