Summary of Allan Pease & Barbara Pease's Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Men use toilets as social lounges and therapy rooms. Women use toilets as strangers, and can come out best friends and lifelong buddies. Men are amazed how a woman can't see a red flashing oil light on the car dashboard, but can spot a dirty sock in a dark corner 50 metres away.

#2 Men and women have evolved differently because they had to. Men hunted, while women gathered. Men protected, while women nurtured. As a result, their bodies and brains evolved in different ways.

#3 The way our brains are wired and the hormones pulsing through our bodies are the two factors that largely dictate how we will think and behave. Our instincts are simply our genes determining how our bodies will behave in given circumstances.

#4 The study of how the brain works now gives us many answers. Men and women are not identical, and they should be equal in terms of their opportunities to exercise their full potential, but they are definitely not identical in their innate abilities.
