I had gotten the idea that Rene was promiscous from the fact that she was very forward with Gallimard. She basically throws herself at him, fully knowing that he is a married man. She doesn't even know his name yet she is willing to start an affair with him, merely based on a two minute conversation. I might have been a little rash when saying that she was promiscous but that was the idea that I got after reading that scene. Also, having Hwang put a woman in that is so open with her feelings makes Song seem even more attractive for Gallimard. This is because he was obssesed with the idea of the dominant western man. The reason why I said that Gallimard had enough confidence and was able to get women WAS because of his relationship with Song. I know that she/he was the one that gave him all of the confidence that he displayed in the following scenes. He sees that he has some power as a man( in that he is able to control women) and uses it. This is only because of the relationship that he has with Song. The scene with Rene does come after the scene in which he has his experiment with Song in which he fully realizes his power to manipulate and control. I fully agree that Song is ultimately responsible for that change in Gallimard.
