Women tend to get intimacy differently than men do. Women get intimacy from
face-to-face talking. We swivel towards each other, we do what we call the
"anchoring gaze" and we talk. This is intimacy to women. I think it comes from
millions of years of holding that baby in front of your face, cajoling it,
reprimanding it, educating it with words.

Men tend to get intimacy from side-by-side doing. As soon as
one guy looks up, the other guy will look away.

I think it comes from millions of years sitting behind the bush,
looking straight ahead, trying to hit that buffalo on the head with
a rock. I think, for millions of years, men faced their enemies,
they sat side-by-side with friends.

So my final statement is: love is in us. It's deeply embedded in the brain. Our challenge is to understand each other.
