Document Summary

Theory, emotion, and the building blocks of social interaction. Women laugh more than twice as often as men do, even when a man speaks and a woman listens. Men are more likely than women to engage in long monologues and interrupt when others are talking. Men are less likely to ask for help or directions because it implicate a reduction in authority. Social interaction involves people communicating face to face or via computer, acting and reacting in relation to other people, it is structured around norms, roles, and statuses. Laughter is seen as a gender difference, those who get more laughs are higher in power than those in laugh, which is why the class clowns in schools are always male. Emotions are like the common cold, they both are an external disturbance which causes a reaction that people experience involuntarily. Feminists found a flaw in involuntary emotional responses, they don"t just happen to us, we have to control them.
