Yeah, okay, sure, right -- I think that's about enough of the mars/venus stuff.
Look, I "get it" that, when Woman asks Man, "Do you think I look heavy in this?" she's not asking a literal question. And I "get it" that, when Woman asks Man, "What do you think?" she (might) be looking for validation and security -- "I think your decisions always turn out well in the end."
Okay, okay.
But when Man asks a direct question and Woman replies "I have no preference" -- sorry, but we're not going to break out the Ouija board here lest, as @Kettricken pointed out, we're interested in degenerating into All Mind-Reading / All-the-Time.
And way beyond any of the internal woman dialogue psychological needs father figure bladee-blah-blah-blah -- let's just engage this: How unfair is it that Woman Half of Relationship thinks she has the right to constantly be testing Man Half? That's just toxic because it erodes confidence and trust. And that, of course, feeds into the whole Him/Her differentiation brouhaha because Him stops acting like he's full o' Manitude, and then Her thinks "Him sure isn't manly, let's go to the Big D (don't mean Dallas)."
