I chose this video because the language of her was very

understandable. On the one hand,I had some difficulties when

On the other hand, I like preparing and reading my friend's

tasks. 



A TALE OF TWO BRAINS- Reflection Task 2-b





In this entertaining film, marriage expert Mark Gungor explores the differences between men and women.


Mark Gungor mentions about how men and women act differently, they communicate differently, and of course they THINK differently. He shows us that problems of couples arise from thinking in a different way.So, their problems are the result of the HEAD, not the HEART. 


He starts with men’s brains, and he talks about men’ brains are made up of little little boxes and have a lot boxes for everything such as box for car, box for money, box for kids, even box for mother. In addition, he says the rule is the boxes do not touch J  And then he talks about women’s brain are made up of wire, and everything is connected like internet superhighway. He explains that one of the reasons why women tend to remember everything. Then he concludes men do not care, but women care about EVERYTHING J  He says men’s favorite box is box called ‘NOTHING’.  Afterwards, he continues with most of the people face with stress. When a man is stressed out, he just wants to run his nothing box J The last thing he want to do with stress that most likely is talk about…  However, when a woman is stressed out, she has to talk about. If she does not talk about it, her brain will probably explodeJ



I really enjoy with watching this video, and I also find this video both entertaining and informative. I can suggest for everyone.
