선생님과 함께 지문을 읽어보세요.
Myths are not fair. They are misperceptions that generalize characteristics or behavior, usually negatively, about a particular group, in this case men. And when a man meets a woman who consciously or unconsciously believes one of these myths, he finds himself in a constant struggle to defend himself against a stereotype that may have nothing to do with him.
Well guys, as much as you don't like to be unfairly stereotyped, neither do women. To really understand women means to see us as we really are, not as we've been portrayed to be. And no matter how hard you may try not to be influenced by generalizations about the opposite sex, some of what you've heard or been exposed to is bound to have an effect on how you interpret or misinterpret a woman's behavior -- even the woman you love dearly.
