I did a term paper, not a research paper, on “Why
Americans have the highest divorce rate compared to other countries”. I chose
two countries, Japan and India, and browsed a few others just to see if there
was a parallel or contrast between them.
I know the term paper was on divorce; however, I got
distracted while gathering information. It amazed me how the majority of
foreign countries do not know the definition of the word “date”. In Japan, their
definition of a date is all of the teenagers go out in supervised groups and enjoy each
others’ company. The boys sit together and the girls sit together.
What amazed me with this social event was the
respect they have for each other. There was no animosity or
jealousy among them; and for most of the group event, laughter prevailed.
For the month of February, I would like to have a survey of my own on dating.
Each week I will ask a simple question. You will have a choice of four answers to choose from. Please choose only one answer in your comments.
What is your definition of a date? Is it:
a) Getting together to have sex
b) Cruising the Strip
c) Going out to a nice restaurant and the movies afterwards
d)
Holding hands while walking in the park
