I just finished reading "For Women Only," by Shaunti Feldhahn. It's written to women about how men think - mostly as a result of a detailed survey Shaunti took of over four hundred different men. It was an eye-opener, to say the least. Almost every page I was thinking, Wait, they really think that? It's pretty incredible. It explains, in men's words, things like
- Why love and respect are essentially the same to him
- Why he doesn't just want to provide, he needs to - and likes it that way
- What "men are visual" means in real life, and how women can help them
- Why the way we look matters to them
And soooooo much more than that. The real kicker is that they think we already know all that stuff. Maybe because we act like we know how men think. Well. Let me tell you, if you think you know, read this book and you'll be mentally kicking yourself for some of the things you've unwittingly thought, said, or done. I know I did. So.
For Women Only, by Shaunti Feldhahn. The teen version is For Young Women Only, same author. Read them - they're both fantastic books.
