Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus

Very presumptive, unenlightened, and full of stereotypical nonsense.

Unless you’re a traditional person in a traditional relationship this book isn’t for you. As a female I found the examples insulting like we only like to shop and the advice horrible. I read 100 pages with my husband and we both quit reading.

I strongly recommend you get this book it is really informative and simple ain’t complicated at all and also it makes you wanna read it and don’t stop literally it is the best book I have read so far that visuals our life today well written 👌🏼

For a modern relationship this book is misogynistic garbage. There are a FEW decent tidbits in here, specifically the intro and some portions on listening and communication. Queue eyes roll at the comparison that “men are like rubber bands” & “women are like waves” If you’re a reader with modern views on gender and the balance of a relationship find another book. If you like the idea that men can *essentially* do whatever they want with no repercussions and women are soft, emotional beings meant to just deal with a mans ego at the expense of her own mental health, then this read is for you.

I read most of this book when it first came out in 1992, and as of early 2015, a lot of its wisdom is still valid. For the last 20+ years, I have enjoyed many conversations with men and women about this book. I read several of the reviews in iBooks, and I really had a few good laughs at the reviewers who gave the book one or two stars and parroted cliches like "stereotypes" or "not factual" or "not scientific," etc. Maybe some people will agree with these negative shibboleths, but this book is helpful and offers some good suggestions for couples (married or dating) to get along better. It's not a panacea, but worth the read. I'm not going to give a thorough review, I just recommend you buy the book at this affordable price. Start reading it, and see what YOU think. Too many folks today have to have an "expert" to give them permission to read something. Use your own common sense, and sort out the ideas that have staying power. Any book can be criticized, but none is perfect, save One. If you dismiss this book, you'll miss an opportunity to learn a few things about opposite sex relationships. Finally, I'm not politically correct saying this, but you may have a few ideas who some of the negative critics are. Some people just don't like same sex couples to get along and even be happy. I don't agree with everything the book says, but that is rather trite. Enjoy.

From Mr. Gray’s doctorate to the final paragraph, this book is fiction. I had to read this for a Sociology course on “Marriage & the Family” to fulfill a requirement and, as an older student, I felt awful for the younger people, especially females in the class. I felt it insulted them, consistently. If a woman were what John Gray says she is, there would be no women doctors, nurses, lawyers, effective administrators, teachers etc. This book is misogyny masquerading as medicine.

I liked this book for the first 2 or three pages and then realized that it really was just a bunch of stereotypes about men and women. I had to read the book for a class ( couldn’t tell you which one) and it was just very hard to keep reading. I remember throwing it against a wall a few times and I believe after I finished with it I burned it. Can’t say it’s a good read.

Not only did I learn about myself as a women, I was able to get a better understanding of how men work. I also understood how my past as a child affected into my relationship. Great book!

Incredible book!!! I highly recommend this book for men and women, a must read! Great insights to my spouse and myself! My husband gave it to me to read and I'm forever grateful! A great bedside book to keep nearby!
