Question: Can the relationship between two characters be defined by the viewer's own experiences?

Rewording the question:

• ·         Can I manipulate the viewer's understanding of the current relationship between the characters?
• ·         Can the relationship between two characters be defined by the viewer's own experiences/influences?
• ·         Could I change how the viewer views the relationship between the characters?
• ·         Why did the viewer view the relationship between the characters the way they did?
• ·         Does the viewer's own understanding influence how they view the relationship between the characters?
• ·         Use questionnaire with concept art to find out reactions of two different audiences.
• ·         Figuring out the cues and clues about personal relationships and what taboos or social rules there exist about how people relate intimately.
• ·         What are the physical attributes and facial expressions that determine gender, relationship status, etc.
