Something Men Do Not Like to Do
Eric Brown hates shopping. "It’s just not enjoyable to me," said the 28-year-old Chicago man who was carrying several shopping bags along the city’s main street, Michigan Avenue. "When I’m out(51), I basically know what I want to get. I rush in. I buy it. I(52)."
Common wisdom says that guys hate to shop. You can ask generations of men. But people who study shopping say that a number of social, cultural and economic factors are now(53)this "men-hate-to-shop" notion.

"Men are frequently shopping to win," says Mary Ann McGrath, a marketing professor at Loyola University of Chicago. "They want to get the best deal. They want to get the best one, the last one and if they do that it(62)them happy."
When women shop, "they’re doing it in a way where they want(63)to be very happy," says McGrath. "They’re kind of shopping for love."
In fact, it is in clothing where we see a male-female(64)most clearly. Why, complain some men, are all male clothes navy, black or brown? But would they wear light green and pink (粉红色的)?
These days, many guys wear a sort of "uniform", says Pace Underhill, author of "Why We Buy". "It’s been hard for them to understand what it means to be fashion-conscious (时尚) in a business way. It becomes much, much easier(65)you narrow your range of choices."
