Book Plot

The book takes the position that women and men are as different as beings from different planets and likens them to the classical Roman god Mars and goddess Venus.One example of the theories Gray offers is that men complain about problems because they are asking for solutions while women complain about problems because they want their problems to be acknowledged. Gray also believes that the genders can be understood in terms of purported differences in how they behave under stress.The book takes the position that women and men are as different as beings from different planets and likens them to the classical Roman god Mars and goddess Venus.One example of the theories Gray offers is that men complain about problems because they are asking for solutions while women complain about problems because they want their problems to be acknowledged.
