#2
A party team game where the men are pitted against the women. Each team predicts how the opposite sex would answer a question. Designed to be an easy and light hearted game where statements are read out from a selection of cards about the opposite sex; you reply true or false. Actual survey based results are then read out. A recipe for some major rows.

* "Men think the most attractive part of a woman's anatomy is her face" True or false?
* "Men think one can always tell when a woman is looking for a husband" True or false?

** “Women think love is not necessarily the best reason to get married" True or false?.
** “Women think it is preferable to date a rich rather than a handsome man" True or false?
