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.

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."
