Hi PaperTrail, I really enjoyed reading your thesis. At times, in describing your brother, I felt you were talking about me.
I enjoyed how you described the confusion in modern dating, and how the community provides guidance. Personally, I don't buy all the evolutionary psychological theories. People are more complicated than that. But the community's models for interaction are much more accurate and useful than what comes out of Hollywood. It's helped me a lot.
Getting back to confusion in modern dating, one of the problems I faced was that I didn't know what I didn't know. I was definitely one of the confused, but the unhelpful models in the mainstream media left me thinking there is nothing to be confused about, "being yourself" should just work. Perhaps I should have been reading Playboy.
