two halves of the brain
For any men out there and girls too. Is it true that men can split their brain completly between sex and love or even sex and relationships. How can you have sex with someone, speak to them everyday, be friends with them and yet feel nothing for them? Or am I just being lied to and men just dont want to admit that they get attached like girls do?

Re: two halves of the brain
The only way that I can figure it is that they are committed elswhere already, and they can't show there feelings. But I do not believe that a man can have sex with a woman, see them everyday, be friends with them, and never develope any feelings for them.

Re: two halves of the brain
I think it is possible. Men are more physically driven and women are more emotionally driven...I think it is based on the composition of our bodies, they have a physical need while most women tend to look for the emotional satisfaction in a relationships.

I personally can't do anything close to that so I'm really not able to answer that honestly

Re: two halves of the brain
That's not so much to do with there being two halves to the brain as it has to do with those men being detached from their emotions. It's not a healthy way to live and if you were to examine their "emotional" relationship closely, you would find that they act very much the same.
These men are the stereotypical dogs...

Re: two halves of the brain
I do agree with Mooant..and I do think allot of it is not just "men being men" because of some biological differences....but so much of it is little boys being raised to behave like some sterotype of men...they can get this from witnessing the relationship between their own parents, and/or from movies, comics, TV, etc...

Re: two halves of the brain
There is a difference between sex, and love. Fundamentally...
Sex: the drive to continue the bloodline, and reproduce, biologically, the instinct to "cherish" someone emotionally probably grew out of a need to protect the caretaker of the young. Love is merely Empathy, and dependency, in varied proportions. the two can exist together, or completely independent of each other. I DO however find it hard to have sex with someone, hang out, be friends, and such on a daily basis, without developing feelings for them, because, quite frankly, if you are already friends, and hang out...then you already have some degree of empathy, add attraction, and...well: protective instinct kicks in: ie- "feelings"
I can equally have sex with someone that I loathe, but...am physically attracted to. Why not? that is another sort of attraction, entirely. That is only one half the equation, but...I s'pose, in the wild, it would still net offspring, if not a family.

true enough...at least up until now. Things are changing, though...and we are now seeing a MUCH more physically dynamic woman, many 18-20 something girls these days, honestly view sex as independent of love, as well...in fact, they often will not even seek the two out together, either, much as "stereo-typical" men have done since the dawn of time. This is much because of the same motivation: desire NOT to risk losing the comfort of a trusted companion ( comfort: NOT hot. comfortable, but...not hot, at least not as hot as excitement...comforts natural enemy.) but...still: a desire for hot, excitement. Newness...drama...
Why are we taught to look for EVERYTHING in one person, anyway? this is a MAJOR cause for over-expectations...and relationship failure.

Re: two halves of the brain
Ya know, I have read something not so long ago...about how when man evolved into an upright bi-ped, his dick become longer, bigger, so it would be more of a prominent feature for the fertile child bearing females to make their choice on who was more fit to father their children, and oddly enough, they say this is also about the same time some women started developing blonder hair!
Eh...could have some merit...or could be just another piecie of crap study.

It did??!! Evolution musta missed me! damn... 
Biology is fascinating...we are, after all, just the dominant animal (dominant being debatable, as well! ) the animal kingdom is a mirror. Albeit a somewhat harsh, unromantic one. Don't get me wrong, either...I LOVE being with someone that I love, and care deeply for. Its just that I don't HAVE to feel that way, for sex to exist, or for it to even be VERY GOOD sex .
