3 ways we make decisions: tradition, rationality, charisma (emotion-feeling)
Rationality - the Iron Rule of Bureaucracy - has taken over the Age of Enchantment
"Ideal types" - kind of like a measuring rod against which we measure instances of some form of social organization, e.g., bureaucracy. You never expect to see an ideal type in existence - it is just the measure.
Verstehen - this is "feeling" the other person so that you can get the meaning of action, since action only means what it means due to the meaning it has for the actor (remember the person tripping on the mat at the swimming pool)
Ideas can change the world: Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism - the Calvinist notion that there was an "elect" created a new form of economic behavior among Americans and Europeans, but especially Americans.
SIMMEL (French)
sociology isn't the study of some big type of society we are in
sociology is events that happen between people: sociations <-- his word
there are FORMS of sociations:
size: big change from two to three (alliances form); big change from country to metropolis (have to relate to people on the surface - money begins to "count")
conflict - conflict from the outside can actually bring people in a group closer
flirting - when you show just a little, but not all
exchange - when between two people, each one gets what he wants
the stranger: <-- you know that one

objective: what the character wants - most impt to know abt the character - fr beginning to end of movie arc
spine: what the character does - action - to get what she wants
PLOT POINT ONE - look for it about 30 min in
PLOT POINT TWO - look for it about 30 min before the end
Gender
Man and Woman are sex distinctions (natural); masculine and femine are gender differences (more cultural)
Deborah Tannen: girls talk to find sameness; boys play to establish "place" in the hierarchy
Women talk in private more; men talk in public more
Women start way "outside" a decision to negotiate with feelings; men start with the answer they want
Because we are different, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is not always the best rule between the sexes.
In business, women are not better negotiators
Rianne Eisler's "The Chalice and the Blade" comes up with a similar division: "Linking" and "Domination"
baby boys like to look at mechanical mobiles; baby girls like to look at faces
parents looking at babies and their first interactons with Jack in the Boxes attribute anger to the boys and fear to the girls.
Women earn 76 cents to the dollar that men earn
