The Woman's Guide to How Men Think: Love, Commitment, and the Male Mind

By: Shawn T. Smith

Narrated by: Paul Aulridge

Length: 5 hrs and 23 mins

Publisher's summary

Comedian George Carlin once said, "Women are from earth. Men are from earth. Just deal with it." Though witty, this sentiment fails to recognize one of the real truths in life: that both genders are completely mystified by one another, and often have a mile-long list of complaints for the opposite sex. Yet, generally speaking, both men and women want to get along—especially if there's romance involved.

A Woman's Guide to How Men Think offers a practical, humorous, yet compassionate guide for women who want to learn the secrets of the elusive male mind. With author Shawn Smith's trademark humor, you'll come to understand why men think and see the world the way they do, and how to work with men to cultivate understanding and communication in relationships, without expecting men to be creatures that they are not. This isn't a male-bashing book about how men should be more like women, but a book about how men actually are, and how women can use this understanding to get what they need from their relationships.

You'll also learn why men often feel frustrated and criticized, how to deal with lack of communication in ways that don't put men on the defensive, and how being curious and compassionate (while not accepting disrespectful or abusive behavior) instead of dismissing men for their inherently male traits can lead to greater understanding between the sexes.

The plain truth is that both men and women are from planet earth. But that doesn't mean we are the same. If you are looking for an insider's guide to the ever-elusive male mind, this is the audiobook for you.

Amazing book

Really helped me better understand men and how they think!

So greateful for the wisdom in this book ♡

This helped me to forgive

I absolutely recommend this for anybody seeking a better dynamic relationship. It definitely shed light on the way the opposite sex thinks.

As a man it gave me clarity about my behavior

Ignore the lower reviews, there either people that are not emotionally mature, or people that are preciving this book through the destructive 3rd wave feminist lense. The book breaks down the evolutionary psychology on why men think the way they do. If you are a women, it'll give you clarification in men behavior and will give you practical advice on how to deal with it. If your a man, it will also give you clarification on your own behavior and you'll have takeaways on how to better get along with women. Overall this book can help improve relations between man and women with its knowledge and practical use.

A Must Read!

This is a must read book for every woman. The book will give you a perspective, a real one!
The author give plenty of examples so you can learn and apply the concepts with your partner. It also give a lot of good data from studies.
I’m very happy with I have learn, I’m going to listen to it again, it is a really good tool.

The only down side of the audio book is the narrator, unfortunately it doesn’t do a good job.

This Book Saved My Relationship

I have about an hour left to listen to, but I wanted to write a quick review. I'm in along distance multi cultural committed relationship. And my man and I nstarted to have recurring stiffs that could possibly erode our blossoming relationship. But, because I got a greater understanding of the male mind, I understand my partner a lot more. Our stiffs turned into minor disagreements or heartfelt talks which ended with us both feeling heard, loved, understood with resolution. I even summarized a lesson (he thought I just had a light bulb moment, lol) to my boyfriend from the book just to see if he would agree. And nodded enthusiastically with a proud, lovingly relieved look on his face, as if to say, "she gets it" Lol So ladies, if you're having unnecessary stiffs with your man, give this book a listen. I can guarantee it will help you and your relationship with your man! Thanks so much, Dr. Smith for writing this book!
