Monday's lecture reminded me of a one man play I saw a few years ago called "Defending the Caveman". It is by Bob Becker and he compares the modern male/female relationship to those of the caveman. His theory is that because men are natural hunters, they will go out into the woods, make the kill and return home. Women, on the other hand are natural gatherers and would go out into the woods and gather berries, things for the cave, and take their time. He compares this to a modern day trip to the mall where a man will go straight into one store, make a beeline for what they need, pay and get out. Women on the other hand, take their time and gather the things they need for the cave, I mean home. His theory is that shopping for women is innate for women since we are natural gatherers. He presents it in a very funny way. He makes more astonishing comparisons to cavemen but that is the one that really stuck. Food for thought.
