Gender Dictionary


About The Book: You already know men are from Mars and women are from Venus. Yet, knowing this doesn't prevent you and your partner from hurting each other with your miscommunication. Anger and relationship problems can arise from gender communication differences. More than 60% of relationship problems and gender issues result from gender communication differences (couples not understanding each others language.) This book, the world's first gender relationship dictionary, translates more than 70 words and phrases you regularly use that have very different meanings for your partner due to those gender communication differences. Understanding the real meaning of these words, as used in Male-ese and Female-ese, will rescue you and your partner from frustrating bickering and painful arguments. At last your good intentions will be heard!

Men, are you ever:
* Frustrated that no matter what you do for her, it's not enough?
* Baffled by why she just can't say what she means, why she's so indirect?
* Angry that you are supposed to know "I'm fine," usually means just the opposite?

Women, are you ever:
* Resentful that he doesn't really listen to you?
* Hurt and confused when he just walks out of the room – in the middle of an argument?
* Mad enough to scream when he persists in giving unsolicited advice – no matter how often you tell him you just want him to listen?

My Thoughts: This book can be a lifesaver. I’ve been in my relationship with my husband for 16 years now, and even still, this book helps. If you look at it together with your partner, or even separately and then later talk about it, you will get something out of it. I like the Personal Inventory List, it helps you discover what some of the major communication problems are in your relationship. I’ve only had this book a few days, and I’ve already devoured it, and it is all marked up with notes from me, and surprisingly, Jason. This book really helped us connect more, and we didn’t even know we needed to!
