"Flirting is a way of testing one's mate-value and the possibility of alternatives--actually trying to see if someone might be available as an alternative"
paraphrase
1. flirting is a way to get to know someone and judge their compatibility.
2. flirting is a way to find out how you and that person might get along.
3. flirting is a way to gauge someones interest in you while you gauge what makes them interesting.
thesis
"Flirtation is a game we play, a dance for which everyone knows the moves."
free-write
flirting is a way of starting social interaction in order to 'woo' someone. social norms are broken and getting to know someone becomes a sort of game people play.
