It's amazing how detailed your memory is. These events happen when you were a young gal I presume and still, you remember all the details. I just found out yesterday why that is. The human brain contains gray and white matter. The gray matter is responsible for abstract and conceptual understanding while the white matter is responsible for detailed perception and connecting different pieces of information in one continuous story. Now man's brain (in general) has more gray matter and less white matter while a woman's brain, on the contrary, has more white matter and less gray matter. That's why man's story is goal-oriented. The sparse few details in it are only given so that the reader could understand the bottom line. Woman's story is oriented for process and the multitude of details in it are given for producing a sense of participation in a reader. Good story!
