Different Gender's Views of the Same Story (For April 17, 2009)

The link above leads to a video called "How We Didn't Date Each Other" by Lev Yilmaz. The video summarizes the events that occurred during the course of a budding, troubled romance . Instead of only Lev talking, he told the story through a type of "conversation" between him and his potential/failed love interest, as though the viewer was a friend of the two and they were all just catching up over lunch. It is interesting because it is all basically one big chain reaction that keeps going because of how one of them perceives the other's actions. An example would be a rift caused in the relationship due to Lev showing her his Playboy magazines, thinking it would be cool. She thought it was disgusting and thought that he wouldn't call her anymore because she didn't sleep with him. But he still called the next day, and the exchange keeps going. The video shows how some humans of each gender may perceive actions in relationships in very different ways. It is refreshing to see a video that presents its point in two different ways at once.
