March 8 - Love and Marriage

I have two Level 6 classes, Level 6 is the top level a student can go to. A student in Level six is good at English and can discuss almost anything at a fairly deep level. Today's conversation topic was Love and Marriage. This should be good I thought. 

Now one of the classes is at 7 am and it is all men - except for one girl who was absent today. The other class is at 11 am and it is all women. 

I was surprised - the women, as expected had so many things to say about love and marriage that is was difficult to stop them talking. The men, on the other hand were tongue-tied and had nothing to say. They looked at me blankly when faced with the first question, "What is Love?" When they finally did start talking it was not really related to the question at all.

So I'm wondering; Is this the case for all men? or just this particular group of men? or maybe only true for Korean men? or maybe it is the case for non-christian men?

Was an interesting morning to say the least.
