When you fall in love for the first time, it’s a very serious moment in your life. When people refer _1_ early romantic feelings with such terms as “puppy love” or “having a crush”, they haven’t simply _2_ what it’s like they are failing to perceive _3_ how powerful and significant the experience _4_. Not only does your first love change your life _5_; it also reveals patterns of romantic behavior that are likely _6_ present in all your future love relationships _7_. If your first experience of love filled you with energy and gave you the _8_ to explore new areas of life, you’ll probably always seek romantic partners who are both demanding and giving. If, on the _9_, your first romance left you feeling awkward and unable to express yourself, you will most likely look for partners with _10_ you feel safe and comfortable. And _11_ the object of your first romantic feelings was can also be _12_.

Or perhaps your first romantic feelings were for _16_ “in between”: remote, but not absent; near you, but not _17_ you ─ an English teacher, for instance. This is a sign of a person committed to self-improvement and so surely a _18_ and rewarding romantic future.

Real feminists can tell you that the only way to ensure equality is through genetic engineering. Women everywhere still suffer _1_ economic injustice, social injustice and — most significant—physical injustice. This is where genetic engineering is _2_ to feminism. The way things are now, too few women feel truly sure of their physical safety. All that _3_ most women from physical force _4_ the so-called social contract. This is not enough. Why should half the population enjoy physical safety as a form of _5_, while the other half enjoys it as a natural _6_? Men who argue that laws can _7_ for this inequality simply can't imagine what it's like to be _8_ to defend yourself. This lifelong lack of _9_ in something as basic as physical safety gives rise _10_ major psychological barriers _11_ equality. How can a person feel equal when she lives _12_ life with the knowledge _13_ stronger creatures are in control? How can she feel truly free to compete with them, ignore _14_ them or disagree with them, all the time knowing they could suddenly _15_ her if she isn't nice? Sure, women can learn self-defense or carry guns, but that _16_ the same as trusting in your own safety. _17_ women really need is a breakthrough in genetic engineering to ensure that both _18_ are equal in physical strength right from the cradle.

One of the most striking things about Americans is that they seem to expect everyone to like them wherever they go. Americans aren't of course the only people in the world who take __1__ that their cultural standards are generally admired—monoculturalism is typical __2__ every society in the world. But it isn't __3__ that Americans seem to expect—they seem to expect __4__. This phenomenon, which the rest of the world finds both amusing and 5 , may be at least partly 6 to the American definition of friendliness. To Americans, friendliness means ___7__ informal and cheerful and open to other people, even before you know them __8__ to be sure you like them. And it's important to note that 9 real friendship may certainly arise __10__ acting friendly in this way, Americans do not mistake __11__ being friends. This can, of course, cause 12 when Americans meet people from more reserved cultures. But if you consider __13__ American history, it's easier to see where this pattern of behavior comes from. In the pioneer days, if you acted too reserved and formal, no one __14__ any reason to help you if you got in trouble (__15__ there was plenty of in the pioneer days). Having a wide circle of friendly acquaintances was a key 16 survival, so “friendliness” became a glorified pattern of behavior that every generation of Americans is trained to _17__ in a high degree. They're so good at being friendly – and it works at home – that Americans' __18__ is that it will work everywhere.
