Would be interested to know if they affect you as powerfully as they did me.

Now that’s going to be an interesting question to answer especially since as a man I will be reading with a different perspective but will definitely share my learnings once I read the book. Should start in a week or so after I am done with current reads

I think it’s directed at women, but no harm in trying. It might be soothing. To finally be understood rather than vilified for doing what nature intended.

Indeed and that’s what I am curious to find out; the key ideas that the author felt women don’t understand about men. Being understood is definitely therapeutic in a big way

Interestingly enough, the author apparently wanted to write a book when she thought men were just pigs, then started doing her research to prove just this, only to discover the opposite to be true.

Funny but interesting how the truth reveals itself and kudos to her for changing her mind after seeing truth for what it is. Most would have ignored the facts and carried on with original idea

I had 25 years of having to endure constant ‚Don’t you work?‘ ‚Aren’t you bored?‘ as I dedicated my time and energy to bringing up my children, so I know how it feels. It’s now with two fiat titles that I get called a ‚power woman‘. It’s bollocks. I was a power woman when I had 4 little ones. But noone saw that. Much less gave my work any value. Yet there is no job harder. More constant. More relentless. More difficult. More rewarding. More vital.
