TV: Episode 17 - What Do Women Want and Men Need?
Laurel Cousens is an aspiring designer with a flare for all things feminine, and Robert Blakely is a helicopter pilot, successful businessman and all around guy’s guy who combined his penchant for design with a passion for technology. In this episode, we take a look at the differences between the living styles of the sexes.
I was at a girls' lunch last week for a single friend and we're all trying to set her up with someone. The suggestions of names came up with the usual questions: What does he look like? What colour's his hair? How tall is he? What does he do? Someone said, "What's his place like?" "Fair question," I thought — you can tell so much from a man's place. In fact, you can start a whole dating service just based on what his place looks like and what her place looks like. Someone said "So, does he have five TV's and brown leather sofas?" "Don't be so judgemental," I thought, "guys need what they need and girls want what they want." That's what this week's show is about: What women want and what men need.Log in to write a comment about this video or share your tips and questions in our forums.
