"Who's right and who's wrong?"
I think this chart explains why I don't want to get married - I hate to lose arguments! It seems men have a 50% chance of
winning an argument until just before getting engaged (making a promise to get married) then the chances drop quickly.
First, the chance of winning drops to around 25% during the engagement before dropping to just about zero after
marriage. Sounds like a great situation - for a woman!
Discussion Questions for Speaking Practice
1. Do you think this chart is accurate (is it right)? Could it be different in different cultures?
2. Why does it seem that women win more arguments, especially after marriage?
3. Do you have any suggestions on how men can win more arguments? (If you give me some good advice, maybe I can
take a chance and get married some day!)
